Description

Providing a new max_comments property to a review that limits the number of comments a review published by ReviewBot can contain in order to avoid excessive commenting to the point of slowing down loading. Using arbitrary value for now.

Testing Done

- manually tested against local dev server: posted a patch to review that contained a long js file (jslint.js) that had more than 30 comments, and ensured that :
1) only 30 comments by JSLint were posted (total, in the entire JSLint review)
2) a descriptive warning was shown in the body_top section of the JSLint review.

One thing this is missing is a modification to 'extension/reviewbotext/forms.py'
to add this setting to the ReviewBotSettingsForm. Make sure to explain why we
need to limit the comments in the help text.

After the form modification, and these small changes, it should be good.

Can we change this to "The maximum number of comments allowed per review. If a review exceeds this maximum, the extra comments will be truncated and a warning will be displayed in the review. Large values can cause browsers to slow considerably if a tool generates many comments."
