[talk-au] Mapping shared driveways

Interesting discussion; it does seem like the consensus is landing on 
the side of service=pipestem.

There are 668 instances of driveway=pipestem in Australia: 
https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1gU6, but there is 0 instances of 
service=pipestem: https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1gUd. However, it seems as 
though I have had a disproportionate influence (509 of driveway=pipestem 
were last edited by me https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1gUf)

I don't have a strong preference either way, so I'm happy to move over 
to the service=pipestem structure (possibly through bulk edit?)
