Taginfo project files

[Jochen Topf]

Simon,

yes, there are some issues with this, but there is still some useful
information there. So I suggest we go ahead with splitting the one large
taginfo projects file as discussed and then see where we are.

The JOSM user preset entry seems to mainly be not so useful, because on the one hand it duplicates presets that are already present in the projects (for example the traffic sign one, which has a very large impact on the number of values) and on the other hand seems to contain some things that would seem to be at odds with the basic concept of the project section, in particular including the NSI.
