Please have a look at the last few entries in #14687. There is some
experimental support for this (via Acquire::http::DlLimit) in the http
method in the apt--bwlimit--0 baz branch. 

Please help testing this branch (and let me know if you need help
building it) so that it can be merged with apt--main at some point.

Cheers,
 Michael
