OS-1566 filesystem limits for ZFS datasets

A dataset can also be delegated to a non-global zone by using the \fBzonecfg\fR
\fBadd dataset\fR subcommand. You cannot delegate a dataset to one zone and the
children of the same dataset to another zone. The zone administrator can change
! properties of the dataset or any of its children. However, the \fBquota\fR
! property is controlled by the global administrator.

A \fBZFS\fR volume can be added as a device to a non-global zone by using the
\fBzonecfg\fR \fBadd device\fR subcommand. However, its physical properties can
be modified only by the global administrator.

+ Limits the number of filesystems and volumes that can exist at this point in
+ the dataset tree. The count of nested filesystems and volumes includes the
+ filesystem on which the limit is set, thus the minimum value is 1. The limit is
+ not enforced if the user is allowed to change the limit. Setting a
+ filesystem_limit on a descendent of a filesystem that already has a
+ filesystem_limit does not override the ancestor's filesystem_limit, but rather
+ imposes an additional limit. This feature must be enabled to be used
+ (see \fBzpool-features\fR(5)).

+ Limits the number of snapshots that can be created on a dataset and its
+ descendents. Setting a snapshot_limit on a descendent of a dataset that already
+ has a snapshot_limit does not override the ancestor's snapshot_limit, but
+ rather imposes an additional limit. The limit is not enforced if the user is
+ allowed to change the limit. This means that recursive snapshots taken from the
+ global zone are counted against each delegated dataset. This feature must be
+ enabled to be used (see \fBzpool-features\fR(5)).
