No

What do you even mean rotate ramps and bridges?

Food limit only should stop you if you are building units.   You can have 
multiple races, each gets up to 200.

If you are just playing melee, you can play a team melee all with the same 
race and have food limits increased to 600 (but you are severely limited in 
number of players - unless you play with multiple people being the same 
person)

I'm not much of a map builder (so could be corrected) but these are what 
I know (and can be done with StarEdit (the default starcraft map editor)).

Ramps and bridges only come in 2 orientations.

Not possible (but you can use a trigger to create more units (but it 
will get to a stage where the units will no longer do damage - often 
seen on evolves maps)

Huh?  Are you referring to the max sprites bug?

Not sure what you mean here.

What I mean is that, once you reach a certain number of units (or food 
amount) firing (there is no way I'm counting how many), each unit goes 
through the animation of firing (eg Dragoons open up their back), but no 
"missle" (plasma ball in the case of the dragoon) comes out, and no 
damage is done to the target (nor is there any animation on the target). 
It's quite funny (but annoying as well) seeing a protoss scout only fire 
1 missile (instead of the usual 2).

I think that there is a max unit's limit as well, but it has a message 
like the unplacable units one ("unable to place unit (XXX) at position 
(XXX,YYY)" - try building tanks a large number of tanks without a relay 
point).

That would be the max sprites bug. Only so many sprites can be on a
map at a given time, and each 'missile' (dragood ball, scout missile,
w/e) counts as a sprite, so if you have a whole shiteload of units
taking up a bunch of sprites then they can't be used for the firing
animation for attacking units. That's more or less how it works,
anyhow.

If there's space to place the unit at the given location, the only
"max unit limit" is the same as the max sprite limit. I don't think it
gives a message like that unless the spawn location is blocked.

There is a max number of items on the map that includes mineral patches, 
trees, critters etc.  It is a limitation of the engine.

You hit it sometimes on those gh3y maps with 8659869869869698698698 mineral 
patches.
