OsmAnd uses capacity:disabled= <number>, example capacity:disabled=1
It is possible to create a user defined search with that:
In filters check "Dedicated places for disabled".
If works!
Of course you need the tagging in the data. I did not test other taggings with
disabled tags.

The tag capacity:disabled=<number> is referred mainly to
amenity=parking, and not to amenity=parking_space.
So it describes the number of disabled parking spaces inside a car
parking, but not the specific parking space.
The use case I'm looking for is to help disabled people to reach
exactly the space for them where to park, so that they can also plan
which path (throught sidewalks that have e.g. a lowered kerb) to use
to reach their destination.
This use, while excellent, is *very* dependent upon OSM mappers not
simply drawing a large area around the permiter of a parking lot but
instead upon them mapping each individual parking space.
Checking taginfo for amenity:
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/amenity#values
One finds 3,112,918 uses of amenity=parking (most of which are on an
area, i.e., most likely the outer permiter of the whole lot) but only
222,624 uses of amenity=parking_space.
Since it stands to reason that most amenity=parking areas will contain
plural parking spaces, this means that there are a huge number of
unmapped parking spaces in the real world. Until someone draws the
individual parking spaces in OSM, there will be, sadly, no way to route
an individual directly to the particular location of a disabled parking
space within a larger lot when the particular space is as yet unmapped.
You might consider a MapRoulette (https://maproulette.org/) challenge
to encourage mapping of both parking spaces and further of the tags
that define individual disabled parking spaces.
