Non-flash asset upload: configured maximum items is not respected

When configuring the assets to have non-flash upload (fileupload.flashEnabled=false on /hippo:configuration/hippo:workflows/gallery/asset-gallery/frontend:renderer, see [1]), the property fileupload.maxItems is not respected.

Reproduced in a client 7.7 project and on the 7.8 demo.
