Hi! I'd propose to tag the section of the road with the turnout (or alternatively just a node) turnout:<left/right/both>=yes.
I would neither use a lane key nor a separate highway=service way, because slow vehicle turnouts aren't lanes for moving traffic and because a separate highway way would give the wrong impression that the turnout were physically separated from the other lanes.
