sneak 4350b1657c Tell upaas operators to set the cache size limit (closes #251)
check / check (push) Waiting to run
"Running under upaas" listed PIXA_CACHE_MAX_BYTES as optional. Under
upaas the volume is a directory on the host's filesystem. The default,
75% of the sum of that filesystem's free space and what the cache
holds, and at least 500 MiB, lets one pixa take three quarters or more
of the space the host and every other app have left, and all of it
when that is 500 MiB or less. The section now says to set it and why.
The default is unchanged.

# Completed Steps
- 2026-10-15 "Running under upaas" in `README.md` tells the operator to set
`PIXA_CACHE_MAX_BYTES` (closes #251): it listed the variable as optional, but
under upaas the volume is a directory on the host's filesystem. The default,
75% of the sum of that filesystem's free space and what the cache holds, and
at least 500 MiB, let one pixa take three quarters or more of the space the

ends and the query begins (closes #247): the signed data and the cache key
joined host, path and query with `:` and no escaping, so a URL signed for
