Actually there shouldn't be a need to patch Dovecot to get this. You
could just do something like:

user_query = select .., \
  '*:' || (case '%s' when 'deliver' then (quota+20*1024) else quota)) as quota_rule, ..

I'm not exactly sure what you intended the patch to do. dict-sql is used
only for storing the actual current quota usage (not limits) to database
when using dict quota (and not Maildir++ quota).
