[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Add throttle rule for cawiki workshop on 2019-12-02

Umm, I was confused. 2019-12-02 is Monday. But we needs this deployed... @Urbanecm I need help.

I'll do my best to deploy this on Monday before the actual event. However, I can't guarantee that will happen. Please count with the option a deployment might not happen for any reason, and in the future, request all throttle exception at least two weeks in advance. Requests placed at shorter notice may be declined.

Thanks everyone for the efforts made to make this happen. I was completely aware of the short notice and usually try to make the requests with enough time to be attended but this time I couldn't get the IP number earlier. However, if the petition can't be deployed I'm an account creator myself so we have some sort of failsafe, even though I'd prefer that the participants have the full experience of creating an account by thelselves.

Thanks for your understanding!
