[talk-au] Join roundabouts

[Andrew Harvey]

noname=yes should only be used for actual roads which you'd reasonably
expect might have a name but don't have a name. I wouldn't want to see it
added to every roundabout, it's just a lot of noise. I've seen quite a few
roads with noname=yes which actually did have signposted names...

route relations I can understand, personally I'd just leave off the
roundabout from the relation, easy enough to infer the route in between,
but how would that work for a destination_sign? I guess the roundabout is
always oneway so adding the whole roundabout should usually be okay, but
does feel better to have a distinct from way leading to the intersection.
