Id: Clarify the "Forest" preset name

Created on 14 Jan 2019  路  1Comment  路  Source: openstreetmap/iD

landuse=forest and natural=wood are often confused by new mappers since the names are generally synonyms. I suggest renaming the "Forest" preset to "Managed Forest" or something similar in order to indicate the difference. This is a simple change but I'm posting an issue to allow for discussion, if needed.

Oh this is a good idea.. I'm going to just do it, since we have a bunch of other translation work in the pipeline.
