Road section updates/additions #18

From the call with GATE, some of the language is confusing in a park context (given it pulls directly from the OSM wikis) and could be more park-specific.

Rewording the unclassified road description to more clearly define it as a both a specific road classification and the default for not knowing a road's classification would be good as well.

A note to rename "Unclassified" -> "Minor Road" once this has been implemented, per https://github.com/nationalparkservice/places-tracing-guide/issues/19.

Two additional road-related fixes/additions to add:

[ ] From the Places data concall today, we need to come up with a new name for "Service Road" more intuitive to the park context (although we can keep the underlying {"highway":"service"} tag) to fit the OSM definition.
[ ] Also from the Places concall today, add "Private Road" {"highway":"private"} to the guide.

Adding from https://github.com/nationalparkservice/places-tracing-guide/issues/17:

[ ] Add {"highway":"motorway"} as "Highway"

"Unclassified Road" (soon to be "Minor Road") will no longer be the default for an unknown road classification. This will be "Unknown Road" {"highway":"road"} once the new presets are implemented. So, disregard updating "Unclassified Road" description to clarify its use as default road preset.
