Revisit integer ordinal constraints for map marker overlay

          We need to revisit this. There might be lower-cardinality integer ordinal variables that DO have vocabularies, and these might be OK to use as marker overlays (as continuous or categorical though?)

We may be able to use the min/max distinct values count constraints but need to check how the client handles these variables as marker overlays. Hence I've put it in web-monorepo for now.

I've had a look and I don't think there is a low-cardinality integer ordinal (perhaps 'year') variable in a mappable study on clinepi to test this with. Going to label as 'paused'.

As per #761 (comment)

I don't think we're going to get low-cardinality integer ordinals. They will be integer continuous hopefully.

The only integer ordinals might be ID variables that got forced at load time to be ordinal?
