Set an upper limit on the size of the field buffer, raise an exception
when this limit is reached. Limit defaults to 128k, and is changed
by module set_field_limit() method. Previously, an unmatched quote
character could result in the entire file being read into the field
buffer, potentially exhausting virtual memory.
