There's a ticket that would help accomplish this [0]. You could then
do a search like "-(highway=mini_roundabout OR highway=turning_circle
OR noexit=yes) child:0,-1 highway=* type:way". At the moment I can't
think of a way to select nodes with only one parent way. If I'm not
missing something and this functionality isn't implemented yet, it
wouldn't be hard, just need to create a ticket and choose an
appopriate keyword: "nparents" "nchildren"?
