Document rate limits

[Nato Boram]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I can't see any docs explicitly explaining rate limit. https://api.modrinth.com/ gives a documentation link https://modrinth.com/documentation but its a 404.

If I call curl "https://api.modrinth.com/api/v1/mod/wq6HaMZG" --include the headers include

x-ratelimit-limit: 200
x-ratelimit-remaining: 197
x-ratelimit-reset: 59

so it looks like anonymous usage is subject to some fairly restrictive rate limiting. Are you able to link to any docs about rate limits? I think if we were going to take on this integration we'd need to understand this constraint in more detail.
