Description

Currently, when a waypoint is added (via code or clicking and dragging a route in the UI) we just change the shape of the route geometry and don't reflect that there is a waypoint.

We should consider adding an annotation for a waypoint and draw it over the route.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing how waypoints are created from code and from dragging a route, then find where the route geometry is rendered. Done means both paths visibly render a waypoint annotation over the route instead of only changing its geometry.
