Description
This would add road vehicle guard rail, pedestrian railing and wall icons:


The main reason I'm making these is for use with iD preset icons for the respective features -- barrier=guard_rail, barrier=fence; fence_type=railing, and barrier=wall (and possibly =city_wall), since they all use the generic barrier icon.
P. S. I also wanted to add hedge and curb/kerb icons, but I don't know how to draw them. Hedges don't really have a defined outline and all my attempts ended up just being a smudge. Kerbs are similarly just a line, so I tried adding a little drainage grate or street lamp, but it just all looks weird.
P. S. S. Instructions say to branch PRs from "From the current development branch - named "v[version-number]-dev"", but I don't see any dev branches.
