---------------------------------------------------------------

Hi all, I've attached an updated patch for your consideration.  It now deletes segments leaving at least logRetentionSize space in the log.

> Currently there is this setting: 
> log.retention.hours 
> introduce: 
> log.retention.size 
> Semantic would be, either size is reached or time is reached, oldest messages will be deleted. 
> This does not break back-ward compatibility and would make the system robust under scenarios where message size is not deterministic over time.
