[Page update] Roundabouts with AGCs
There's been some discussion in various places about how to handle roundabouts with at-grade connectors (AKA bypasses) where the AGC is persistently avoided. Some hacks work better than others, but the only available info has been in forum threads and Discord chat sessions.
Because of that, I figured it would be helpful to add a section to the roundabouts page with some information on these setups, including use of U-turn prevention and detour prevention to force routing through the AGC. Since these are hacks, my draft contains warnings to only use them when there's a demonstrable need and only under supervision of local leadership. I brought this up in the SM channel beforehand and got some buy-in on the need to document this.
The draft also includes some new info on what happens when you connect multiple roads to the same RA node and when it's appropriate, moves the entrance section below the instructions section (since understanding instructions helps one understand entrances), and also some formatting changes to the rest of the page, like removing second-person pronouns.
