[operations/mediawiki-config@master] emailuser ratelimit: Use user-global rather than user

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/732260

@Urbanecm hi, 3 questions:
(1) When do you expect this change to be live?
(2) Do you have any suggestions for what the Tech News entry should say? I would guess something like:

There is a limit on the amount of emails a user can send each day. This limit is now global instead of per-wiki. This change is to prevent abuse.

(3) Also I wonder if this should be included the week after the change is live, to prevent BEANS issues? Thanks.

Sometime next week. Would you like me to schedule an exact date for it?

LGTM!

Ideally, yes. Thanks for pointing this out.

Nope, no need for an exact date - I now know to place this in the following week's issue! Thanks again.
