[Tagging] implied surface values?

[Florimond Berthoux]

Unpaved and paved values are valuable values.
It is not possible to tag the word with precision, all values are
imprecision of the real world.
Just some are more precise than others.

StreetComplete can have a quest for that, and there is a ticket about it
