use_large_resources => use_resources
requires(): New function which can be used to `assert' that a specific
-u/--use resource flag is present. Raises a TestSkipped if not.
This is used in test_largefile and test_socket_ssl to enable
external or resource consumptive tests that are normally
disabled.
