With @karenzshea's name / ref split (ref. #2857) in master we want to
make use of it and reduce `NewName` instructions when ever possible.
This is a first step towards #2744 by using the already existing name
change heuristic from the extractor now in post-processing as well.
Limitations: at the moment we don't have the `SuffixTable` in
post-processing; this would require us serializing and subsequently
deserializing the table, passing it through from the profiles to the
API.
Before we only worked on subsequent quick turns, as in:
`right, right` keeps the user on the rightmost lanes.
This changeset modifies the logic to work on any subsequent steps
that are "quick" and have lane information we can constrain later.
Because we do not have a from-lane => to-lanes mapping we take the
lanes left and right of the turn lanes into account when heuristically
assigning the leftmost / rightmost lanes.
There are some edge cases where this still does not give us the optimal
solution but it gets close to what is actually possible at the moment
without having a lane mapping in post-processing.

fix rebase
Roundabout Intersections are roundabouts with up to four ways and turn
angles which makes the turns obvious, e.g. as in:
```
*
*
* * * *
*
*
```
but not
```
*
*
* * *
* *
* *
```
For Roundabout Intersections we issue instructions such as
"turn <direction>" instead of "take the <nth> exit".
At the moment we have a limit on the radius for these Roundabout
Intersections of 5 meters. Which fails to classify a wide range of
Roundabout Intersections in the US (with the US-wide streets).
This changeset removes the Roundabout Intersection radius limit:
- if the roundabout is larger than a threshold and is named we classify
it as a rotary
- if the roundabout matches our criteria for Roundabout Intersections
we classify it as a Roundabout Intersection
- else fallback to plain old Roundabout
There is a second issue with determining a roundabout's radius.
But that's for another pull request (tracking in #2716).

Staggered intersection are very short zig-zags of only a few meters.
They are common in rural and exurban areas, especially in the US.
(In addition, these cases could as well be tagging issues)
We do not want to announce these short left-rights or right-lefts:
* -> b a -> *
| or | becomes a -> b
a -> * * -> b
Here is one example:
- https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=20/39.26017/-84.25182
And here are two edge-cases that we don't handle at the moment:
- http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=20/38.87900/-76.98519
- http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=19/45.51056/-122.63462
and probably should not handle since the distance in between is
quite long (roughly 7-15 meters). For these we want to announce
two turns to not confuse the user.
Thanks to @1ec5 for raising this issue and @karenzshea for
providing additional US examples and cultural insights.
