[Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - site_type=defensive_settlement

[martianfreeloader]

I agree.

We have loads of tags that only mappers with special knowledge can use 
correctly (just dive into the world of railways). This doesn't mean 
these tags shouldn't used by those who know what they're doing.

When it comes to trees, I'm a quite "ordinary" mapper. I have no idea 
how to use genus=*. I still find the tag very much deserves to exist.
