Research direction
Start with apps/notes/lib/AppInfo/BeforeShareCreatedListener.php and apps/notes/lib/Service/NoteUtil.php, following getOrCreateNotesFolder during guest-account share creation. Reproduce the share flow for an account without storage or quota and verify that creating the share succeeds without the reported exception or log message.
