Render elevation of viewpoints #4878

Open ppete2 opened 1 year ago

tourism=viewpoint are objects where, besides its name, usually also its elevation is an important property. So in my mind it would be a good idea to render its elevation if it's present.

ele on tourism=viewpoint without natural=peak has 4396 uses (about 2 percent).

Like already mentioned in a different context in https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1060#issuecomment-1717426647 many of these are close to a different feature (like natural=peak, information=guidepost) and duplicate the ele value of that feature. Like here:
