 GPSBabel does conversions between the various types of data points in a GPX file, so it could do what you're needing to accomplish.

 Pretty sure you’ve described exactly how it works. You’re going to have to
make your own waypoints. I haven’t found a way to convert a track point to
a waypoint. But it’s easy enough to drop one on top of a track point.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!!
