Add new CVar:
sv_rehlds_allow_large_sprays0: disallow larger custom sprays than regular 64x64
1: default hlds behaviour, spray max bound size is 256
Purpose
Some players like to be annoying by using custom tools to create larger than normal sprays, sometimes trolling by spraying ladder textures and such. It's funny the first time but gets old fast.
Because of this, lot of server owners decide to disable sprays altogether with sv_allowupload 0, which is not fun.
This gives another option for server owners to disallow those annoying large sprays, while allowing the regular 64x64 sized ones.
Future improvements
In future another CVar could be added
sv_rehlds_allow_color_sprays, by adding check whether the palette is regular single-color (grayscale), as is result when making custom sprays normally as BMP like supposed to, instead of directly editing wad with custom tools to get around the color limitation.
