[Talk-GB] Tagging disabled parking

[SK53]

I've never been sure that the tagging is particularly clear. In fact not
much seems to have changed since 2016
<https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/53258/disabled-parking>.

I presume the best approach is to set capacity & capacity:disabled to the
same value (these are the only relevant tags in the iD preset)

The access tags disabled=* and access:disabled are not particularly heavily
used (less than 10% of the number of capacity:disabled). I'm a little
surprised that this is the case because I am aware of plenty of places
where a blue badge holder may be allowed to drive, but others are not.

The brute force approach is to map the parking spaces themselves as well as
the car park, as tagging is much better established for individual disabled
parking spaces (via parking_space=disabled). There is no equivalent tag I'm
aware of for amenity=parking.
