For amenity=bicycle_rental there is some ambiguity regarding docking
stations vs drop off points

bicycle_rental=docking_station
Vs
bicycle_rental=dropoff_point

The wiki and SC quest imply that the difference between A docking station
and a drop off point for bike schemes is whether the stand locks the bike
or not.

This is a docking station that doesn't lock the bike, the bike has a switch
on the side that you slide and it locks the bike.

 You can leave the bike next to the stands if they are full and they don't
lock or charge the bike. But i think that it is clearly a docking station.
I intend to modify the wiki to make it clearer if the docking station holds
the bicycle in place and is designed only for those specific bikes then i
think that is sufficient to make it a docking station.

If you disagree with me this is your chance to tell me why
