First use of cycleway:left=opposite_lane appears to be one in Böblingen near Stuttgart in November 2009 [1]. About one year later it was applied to a geometry in the center of Paris [2].
Traces of cycleway:left:oneway=* date back to late 2010, north of Edinburgh [3], about two months after the edit in Paris. So both uses can be found in the data long before June 2013, when opposite_lane suddenly was favoured to be documented in the osm wiki, for whatever reason that might have been.
