The function csv.field_size_limit gets and sets a global variable. It would be useful to change this limit in a per-reader or per-thread basis, so that a library can change it without affecting global state.

Hi Carlos, I think this can be added as a new
field_size_limitkeyword argument to csv.reader().I will work on it.
