[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Increase may key and value max length (#2025)

[mmd]

Yeah, right. I point was more to raise a bit of awareness to think about such a change in a much wider context. People tend to be too much focused on the API itself, but there's so much other stuff going on in other parts of the ecosystem. Things like a size limit can be buried deep into some library, and scattered across lots of applications that all need updating then.

See this tiny bit in osmium: https://github.com/osmcode/libosmium/blob/master/include/osmium/osm/types.hpp#L69 - it affects object handling + pbf parsing...
