`area:highway` is not detected as being an area, causing the validator to be wrong.

[GoodClover]

What steps will reproduce the problem? ¶

1. Create a way with area:highway=*.
2. Create a way with landuse=*.
3. Ensure the ways are at least 4 nodes (below 4 will not get detected as an error).
4. Run the validator.

What is the expected result? ¶

Nothing.
JOSM will not complain, detecting that area:highway=* means it is an area, which are allowed to share segments.

What happens instead? ¶

JOSM complains that "Ways share segment with area" between the landuse and area:highway.
I assume this is because JOSM dosen't detect area:highway and thinks it is a way and not an area.

Attached is an example of data that will cause the issue.

Sorry I mistyped in step 3.
Should say:

3. Ensure the ways share are at least 4 nodes (below 4 will not get detected as an error).

I think this doesn't happen with tested version r17428, please update.

Was fixed with r17350
