Quota Refactoring

Registered by Kevin L. Mitchell

Refactor quotas to allow for resource registration; atomic updates; quota reservations; and plugability of quota backend storage. A Resource class is created for resource registration and a QuotaDriver class is created for plugability; quotas are managed via a global QUOTAS object (instance of class Quota) in parallel with the configuration object. (A global variable is not ideal here, but in the absence of a better alternative, it was the obvious choice.)
