Description
In the aftermath of #7064, it seems that it would be beneficial to be able to restrict wiki pages and tickets to a configurable maximum size.
We (in the developer.pidgin.im instance) have had people defacing tickets and wiki pages with large amounts of text - this would mitigate the problem somewhat and make the problem less painful to deal with.

I started looking into this, and the option exists for ticket descriptions since 0.11 ([ticket] max_description_size which defaults to the same as attachments do). No such thing for wiki pages though.

Goes along the lines of resource control, so OK for 0.11.1 (here, resource as in CPU/memory of course ;-) ).

The patch above introduces two new configuration options:
[ticket] max_comment_size: limits the size of ticket comments.[wiki] max_size: limits the size of wiki pages.
The default value is the same as for [ticket] max_description_size and [attachment] max_size.

patch looks good. I still think the SpamFilter plugin is the only real defense against this type of problem but I guess people can find this useful.

Sorry, I didn't mean to make it a blocker.
