add descriptins for leaf_cycle (was: copy texts from wiki, license problems)

[Klumbumbus]

I would like to add the descriptions of the values of ​Key:leaf_cycle from the wiki (since semi_evergreen and semi_deciduous are not self-explaning). However this seems not allowed, because of the cc-by-sa 2.0 license of the wikitexts. Would it be enough, if we add the text Parts of the texts used in presets taken from the osm wiki http://wiki.openstreetmap.org CC BY-SA 2.0 (or similar) to the contributors or license tab of the about window?

I doubt that that small text parts have enough individuality that a license can cover them at all. I'd say simply copy them without any special handling. For all these licenses to work you need a minimum amount "art" (don't know English terms here). Otherwise it are simply words which can't be protected.

In 8167/josm:

fix #11294 - add descriptions for leaf_cycle values (source: ​https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:leaf_cycle); add leaf chunk to hedge

OK, sounds reasonable.
