-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
 The {{{s3.max_space}}} option, which limits the space used by a storage
 server using an S3 backend, was removed in [5482/ticket999-S3-backend]
 because it wasn't completely implemented. The intention of this option is
 to protect the user from being charged for excessive space usage, perhaps
 due to a rogue file copy that is copying more than expected, or someone
 gaining access to the introducer FURL and maliciously uploading a large
 amount of data.

 The attached patch adds back the partial implementation.
