Draw transit vehicles as trolleybuses, cable cars, funiculars, gondolas and monorails

The transit layer knew five modes, so a trolleybus drew as a bus, a
funicular as a train and a coach as a city bus. The GTFS basic route types
are now modes of their own (trolleybus, cable_tram, monorail, funicular,
aerial_lift), each with an icon, colour, detection tier, card word, voice
name, speed ceiling and fleet model.

A vehicle record may carry its route's GTFS route_type as routeType. It
settles the mode after the feed's fleet hint and before its route hint, and
picks the finer model (a coach for 200, a high-speed set for 101) when the
type is a kind of the vehicle's mode. Retained history classifies epochs
through transitModeFor too, so trails join the live vehicle.

Route hints from each operator's routes.txt: Prague's trolleybus lines
(51-59, 232, 275) and Petrin funicular, and the trams, trolleybuses and
metro lines of Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca and Turin. A feed may also name
route corrections that outrank the route type: Le Havre's routes.txt types
its funicular (8-FUNI) as a bus, so it is corrected to a funicular.

- Draw transit vehicles as their kind, not one of five: trolleybuses, cable
cars, funiculars, gondolas and monorails are modes of their own, with their
own icon, colour, card word and fleet model. A vehicle record may carry its
route's GTFS `route_type` (`routeType`), which settles its mode before the
feed's route hints and picks the finer model (a coach for 200, a high-speed
set for 101). Prague's trolleybuses and Petřín funicular, and Bucharest,
Cluj and Turin's trams, trolleybuses and metro lines, now read as such from
the route ids in each operator's routes.txt. Le Havre's funicular, which its
routes.txt types as a bus, is a named correction that outranks the route
type (samehkhamis, #0000).
