[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#460488: smb.conf example: Clarify comment for max log size

Package: samba
Version: 3.0.26a

This is a bit pedantic, but when I was studying the smb.conf file, this
seemed odd, so I went to verify it. It seems like an easy fix to clarify
this to save others the trouble:

The comment for max log size says "Kb". It should say "KiB" or at least
"KB", as it's in bytes, not bits. I'm attaching a patch which shows the
change. It would probably make sense to change the value from 1000 to
1024, which would make it an even 1 MiB. It seems odd to have a power of
ten value for a field that's in a power of two units.

Also, I found the "Put a capping" wording awkward, so this patch changes
that as well.
