[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - parking=street_side

[Supaplex]

Do you have an example picture/mapillary or similar of such a street?
You call this case yourself "parking lane" and the way you describe it,
it sounds like a typical case for parking:lane:* =
parallel/diagonal/perpendicular, but not for
parking:lane:*/parking=street_side. "street_side" is intended for cases
where the parking spaces are structurally (especially structured by
curbs) located on one side of the carriageway. (That means, if -
hypothetically - no vehicles were parked there, you could still not
drive there because curb extensions or street furniture would block a
continuous drive.)

A cycleway located behind this parking area is no longer part of the
roadway and would therefore not be "lane" but "track". But maybe I
misinterpreted the case you meant?
