[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Add ability for site moderators to hide a user profile (Issue #3654)

[SomeoneElseOSM]

> As far as I can tell from the reports I see many of our users are pretty thin skinned and expect us to ban people for the most trivial of perceived offences and I'm concerned that we don't wander into a situation where we are doing exactly that.

Agreed - and on a number of occasions I've suggested to people that changeset comments talking about them are best left as they are because they say rather more about the commenter than the person being commented upon.  

However, there are examples (such as the link to a racial slur from one of the profiles mentioned earlier**) where other action may be appropriate, and yes, as Frederik and I have both said, this needs to be done in an accountable way.

** it's likely that Google/Youtube will in time pull that content too.
