[Tagging] Direct reduced iron plants

[Daniel Evans]

Hi Martin,

It sounds like your feeling is that the tagging of industrial sites should
be closer to power=plant and the associated plant:x tags. If I'm
understanding your thinking correctly, something like:
* man_made=works should live within a landuse=industrial - although they
may be the same polygon for a low detail level of mapping or an industrial
site with only one facility.
* product= should work as it currently does
* Some sub-tags such as works:type=steel_mill; works:method=basic_oxygen,
similar to how power:source and power:method work

Cheers,
Daniel
