Issue
Fixes: #7325
Add support for the maxweightrating=* OSM tag in the car profile, addressing the upcoming tag migration in France.
The French OSM community is migrating from maxweight=* to maxweightrating=* to better reflect the semantics of French road weight restriction signs (which indicate maximum allowed vehicle rating, not actual weight). The migration timeline is:
February 2026: Dual-tagging (maxweightrating=* added alongside maxweight=)
July 2026: maxweight= tags removed
