Description
My workflow utilizes instance-level NVME-SSDs as a local scratch disk and therefore I utilize `EphemeralVolume` for `SlurmQueues` . It would be nice to have the total size of the `EphemeralVolume` be a GRE for that queue in slurm so that jobs can be submitted specifying the amount of space needed from the nodes in the queue.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the SlurmQueues and EphemeralVolume handling, then inspect how queue resources are rendered into SLURM configuration. Done means the EphemeralVolume capacity is exposed as a per-queue generic resource that jobs can request, with coverage for the relevant configuration path.
