First, pack.packSizeLimit and --max-pack-size didn't use the same base
unit which was confusing. They both use suffixable value arguments now.
Also, if the limit was sufficiently low, having a single object written
could bust the limit (by design), but caused the remaining allowed size
to go negative for subsequent objects, which for an unsigned variable is
a rather huge limit.

Fair enough.
