It's not clear to me what's the goal of this thread? I understand what
quotas are about, but are you sharing it because (a) it's a useful
extension, (b) you propose adding a couple of new hooks (and keep the
extension separate) or (c) you propose adding both the hooks and the
extension (into contrib)?

I assume it's either (b) and (c), in which case you should add it to
2019-01 CF: https://commitfest.postgresql.org/21/

In either case, it might be useful to add a LICENSE to the github
repository, it's not clear what's the situation in this respect. That
probably matters especially for (b), because for (c) it'd end up with
PostgreSQL license automatically.
