Distinguish between special ways a passenger may board or alight at a stop. The majority of boardings and alightings will be of type "default" -- a regular boarding or alighting at a regular transit stop. Currently, the only non-default types are related to GTFS-Flex, but this pattern can be extended as necessary.
