test(e2e): require quota admission on over-limit 4x4 PUT

Do not treat SlowDown or AccessDenied as a hard-quota rejection.
Match InvalidRequest/QuotaExceeded only with a Bucket quota exceeded
message, matching the single-node quota e2e contract.

 ## Summary of Changes
 <!--
-Describe the concrete problem and resulting behavior. For a behavior change, name the input or state that triggers it and the expected outcome. Explain any new dependency or abstraction that the change needs.
+Briefly explain what changed and why reviewers should accept it.
+Focus on behavior, compatibility, and review-relevant context.
 -->
 
 ## Verification
 <!--
-Give 1–3 concrete pieces of evidence for the changed behavior: the test or command, its observed result, and the regression it catches. For a bug fix, record a failing-before/passing-after check or explain why it was unavailable.
+List the commands or checks you ran, for example:
+- `make pre-commit`
 
-Identify the tested commit and any local changes. When testing a prebuilt binary or external service, include its source/version and artifact identity; a successful run against a different build is not evidence for this change.
+Use N/A only when verification is not applicable.
-
-List relevant checks not run and the remaining risk. Use the validation tier in AGENTS.md; do not run broader checks solely to fill this section. For documentation-only changes, list the applicable documentation checks. Use N/A only when verification is not applicable.

 ### 🔒 Git Pre-commit Hooks (optional)
 
-The optional hook uses the checked-in `.pre-commit-config.yaml`. Install [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/#installation), then run this from the checkout or a linked worktree:
+Git hooks are **not** versioned in this repository, so a fresh clone has no
+active pre-commit hook. If you add your own `.git/hooks/pre-commit` (a good
+choice is a one-liner that runs `make pre-commit`), you can mark it executable
+with:
 
 ```bash
 make setup-hooks
 ```
 
-The hook runs `cargo fmt --all --check` when staged files include Rust source. It does not compile the workspace or run tests. Fix formatting with `cargo fmt --all`, inspect and stage the result, then commit again.
+Or manually:
 
-`pre-commit install` resolves Git's hook directory for linked worktrees and preserves an existing hook in migration mode. If you use `core.hooksPath`, keep that hook manager and integrate `pre-commit run` there; the installer refuses to silently replace that configuration.
+```bash
+chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit
+```
 
-A local hook provides early formatting feedback. With or without it, follow the verification tiers in `AGENTS.md`, run relevant behavioral tests, and satisfy the CI merge gates. `make pre-commit` and `make dev-check` remain explicit broader commands.
+With or without a hook, follow the verification tiers in `AGENTS.md`. Run the
+applicable scoped checks, and reserve `make pre-pr` for broad cross-module
+changes whose impact cannot be bounded by those checks.

+
+If you set up a pre-commit hook and your code doesn't meet the formatting requirements, the hook will:

+1. **Block the commit** and show clear error messages

+3. **Guide you through** the resolution process

+//! Shared 4-node distributed e2e helpers.
+//!
+//! Two localhost-expressible layouts cover the suite:
+//!
+//! * **4×4 single pool** (`four_by_four`) — four processes, four drives each,
+//!   one `DistErasure` pool (16 explicit volume endpoints). This is the
+//!   default S3 / lock / versioning / chaos topology.
+//! * **4×4 four pool** — `append_single_node_pool` exists for harness unit
+//!   tests. Live expand-then-restart currently hits `pool metadata recovery
+//!   required` on localhost DistErasure. That is a production bootstrap-proof
+//!   limitation this test lane does not change. Movement tests use 4×4 single
+//!   pool and classify decommission/rebalance product refusals (and opaque
+//!   500 InternalError) as a refused move while still asserting object bytes.
+//!
+//! Genuine multi-node *striped* pools still need multi-host CI (backlog
+//! #1313 / #1314). Site replication uses two 4-node 1-drive clusters so the
+//! process count stays at eight rather than sixteen.
