chngds: Guangdong Provincial Expressways

[Nagamasa]

Likely one of the largest expressway systems that is unmapped, I've started to map out the Guangdong (CHN-GD) provincial freeways (about 1000km) now that most of national expressways (chng) in the province are mildly completed (which I'll go back to set new intersecting waypoints).

Chinese and English Wikipedia cover the expressways pretty well (though some of the parent pages are a few years dated), and all very well mapped on OSM. They are all tolled so entry points from toll plazas are clear.

For reference:

And we'd be adding:

There is a Draft PR with the .wpt routes I've completed: https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/7535/files

System is in preview since 2024-07-21. 70 routes for almost 3,500 miles.

@nagamasa, how is the quality of that system? Should we review this earlier than chng?
