change 425 to 507

Note this mail from the DAV list.

They are changing the 425 code (insufficient storage) to 507 on the grounds
that it is *server* side problem not *client* side problem.  So we should
make the same change in the DASL spec.

This is further explained in the mail quoted below.

Saveen will you please edit the specification?
