[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Limit number of edits per user and day (#2342)

Here is my suggestion. Implement a process whereby 2 or more users with a minimum account age can be petitioned. Upon acceptance by the minimum quorum, a token is generated for one-time use which is permitted to exceed the normal limits, which is attached to the upload. Or something along those lines. There could also be more granular limits. For instance, local user group members could be permitted to grant tokens for their local area. Larger changes could require a national user group token. I would be in favor of applying granular limits on a location basis to protect from vandalism.
