[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Minimum number of characters for notes (Issue #6409)

[Andy Allan]

The only attribute that currently has a minimum length (other than 0 or 1) is `user.display_name`, which has a minimum length of 3.

We need to be very careful when picking minimum lengths, since some languages (e.g. Chinese) have a lot of information in each character. I have limited experience with reading CJK but I wouldn't be surprised if you can fit multiple complete sentences in less than 10 characters! So having that high a minimum might lead to contributors having to fill their notes with extra unnecessary characters. 

If anyone has more direct experience with CJK note lengths, or wants to analyse existing notes, it would be good to have more details.
