Boot log sink file collector max number of files threshold

Description
Need to introduce keyword::max_files for sinks::file::make_collector() in order to limit number of files in the collector's target directory, similarly to keywords::max_size. For instance, when rotating files daily, one should be able to specify number of days to keep the files for.

This is one that has interest to me as well, and I think I can implement it if it would be well received.
I've not submitted a patch to boost before, but it seems that I can fairly simply create a .patch file to get this going.
andysem or whoever is paying attention, is this a feature that would be well received/regarded? I see it is 2 years old, so I am curious if it has been sitting like this for good reason?
