NIP-11 extension for Relay Limitations
--------------------
This PR is an extension to NIP-11 and allows the relay to specify its technical, and other, limitations so that clients can adjust their behaviours to better suit the relay.
This includes such things as:
- maximum length of incoming JSON (which has many impacts)
- retention times for specific event types
- political considerations
- content policies
To be very clear: this document DOES NOT propose any values for these limitations. It is merely a way for cooperating clients to know what they are dealing with. All are optional fields.
This PR could be merged into NIP-11 as it is a pure extension to that JSON response, or be its own thing. I'm proposing 111 as its number in that case.
