Limit the number of votes by any individual #133

I think that folks should be able to vote for more than one issue, but less than infinite. In the original survey we "suggested" that users limit their voting to 5-8 issues. The few issues one votes for, the larger the impact - so there is some natural incentive to limit the number of votes.

However, on that site we did not have a mechanism to enforce the number of votes.

I think that a limit on the number of votes will make the system seem more fair, but I am not sure if it's a critical feature.

I believe that could accomplish the goal of limiting votes with either rules module or some custom code. I am not sure if there is a contrib solution for this right now.

I think @jenlampton was wondering whether the flag_limiter module would meet this use case.
