Members who hit their spend limit can ask an admin for more from the VS Code limit banner

What

There is a new flow for Team and Enterprise members who reach their own spend limit (the most usage their organisation lets them have). In the VS Code extension, the banner that appears when you hit a limit can now offer a button to ask your admin for a higher limit.

• adminRequestOffer is a new optional part of the usage and limit information. It moves through the states can_ask, pending, sending and sent, and carries its own wording: a button label, a label shown once the request is done, and a confirmation message.
• The default wording is 'Request more' and 'Request sent to your admin ✓'.
• admin_limit_request is a new request method, which is the call that sends the ask to the admin.
• The offer depends on two remotely controlled switches, tengu_tallow_quoit_gate (default false) and tengu_tallow_quoit (a settings object that includes a vscode block for the wording). Related names tengu_tallow_quoit_wall and tengu_tallow_quoit_filed also appear. Nothing has been read about whether any of them is turned on.

Why

If you are capped by your organisation, this gives you a way to ask for more usage from where you hit the limit instead of contacting your admin separately. As described here it appears in the VS Code extension only, and whether you see it depends on remote switches.
