nvme: raise FDP placement handle cap to U8_MAX and warn on overflow

Browse source

The RUH status buffer and the placement-handle clamp used S8_MAX - 1
(126) as the maximum descriptor count. That value was picked only so the
io-mgmt-receive result fit in a page, not because of any protocol or
driver restriction.

The meaningful upper bound is U8_MAX: write hints (bio->bi_write_stream)
are u8, so placement handles beyond U8_MAX can never be selected. Size
the buffer and clamp nr_plids to U8_MAX.
