    Add a maximum number of users for csv files (bug #823048)
    
    This allows $cfg->maxusercsvlines to be specified in config.php to
    stop admins and institutional admins from uploading large csv files.
    This is potentially useful on large multi-user sites.
    
    And until such time as we can reduce the amount of memory used by the
    create_user function, setting this option will provide the user with
    some feedback on csv upload failure (because we can't easily trap the
    php out-of-memory error).
    
    See also bug #548042.
    
    This commit also adds a call to set_time_limit() after processing each
    user, so that the script doesn't fail due to php's max. execution
    time.

Title:
  Uploading new users via CSV gives generic error message

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  When you attempt to upload a lot of users via CSV and the upload is
  not made, you only receive a generic error message that doesn't give
  you the reason why the upload failed. When a certain server limit is
  reached, in some cases 100 users, the upload doesn't proceed so that
  the process does not take up all the processing power. The admin
  should be made aware of that and the error message should be more
  specific.
