[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] User account self-deletion allows bad actors to delete and recreate the same account name to "lose" changeset discussion and block history (Issue #4018)

> Brings up a question: Can users pending delete rename themselves?

There's no such thing as a "pending delete". We don't introduce any new flags, batch jobs or anything. Either your last edit was {cool_down_days} days ago, and you're eligbale for deletion (=hitting the delete button is possible), or you need to wait for a few more days.
