[Tagging] city limit sign end

[Volker Schmidt]

Thanks, Alexey.
I was not aware of the city_limit=* key.
And I realize that I never have the direction key properly with
traffic_sign=city_limit. (forward/backward in stead of the cardinal
directions)

Looking closer it turns out that the city_limit=* key is exclusively used
in Germany, but nowhere else. But Germany is not the only country that use
end-of-city-limit signs. Are there other alternatives?
