[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Minimum/maximum supported URL length for API queries is not documented (or guaranteed fwiw), provide it via capabilities call (Issue #4850)

[mmd]

FWIW: CGImap has no explicit limit, it will happily process whatever the webserver allows in terms of max request size.

One thing I'm missing in this discussion in the total size of the http header fields, which could also result in "431 Request Header Fields Too Large". If for whatever reason someone is sending lots of large cookies along with their API request, this might have some impact on  the max number of OSM objects they can request.
