[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Allow to agree to new terms if already agreed to old terms (PR #5706)

Do we just change the language from "accept" the ToU to "confirm that you read", or did we go from *mandatory* acceptance to *automatic* acceptance since https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/2028#issuecomment-439124390? With automatic acceptance we don't need to make any GDPR-related changes because whenever you use the data you "accept" the ToU and get all of the associated "rights". But obviously that's not what those who want GDPR-changes think. EWG, for example, asked me recently if I plan to "make accepting the terms of use a requirement". They think the ToU need to be "accepted". Now it may be the case that what EWG thinks is not the same what the current LWG thinks about all this.

Alternatively we can ignore all of this, forget about the ToU and use the current Privacy policy as a guide, see https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/5804#issuecomment-2726403892 minus the github argument. Show some things only to logged in users and ignore the `tou_agreed` attribute. Then this pull request is not very useful and so is #2028 from 2019, aside from adding links to the terms pages.
