Description

From my understanding of the MapBox API, it should be possible to flag waypoints as empty so that the routing engine doesn't give steps for stopping and resuming travel at certain waypoints. this functionality is non-obvious or impossible in the current SDK.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the SDK's waypoint handling and the Mapbox API documentation for empty waypoints, since no file or test is named. The work is done when the SDK exposes a clear way to mark such waypoints and verifies that routing does not produce stop-and-resume steps for them.
