Quota plugin is built so that it could support full IMAP QUOTA extension
(RFC 2087). The QUOTA extension supports different kinds of quota
resources, such as STORAGE (kilobytes) or MESSAGES (number of messages).
It also allows the server to send more than those two. So Dovecot's
get_resources() function returns which of those resources are supported
by the backend, currently it's either STORAGE or both STORAGE and
MESSAGES.
