fanotify: limit the number of marks in a single fanotify group

There is currently no limit on the number of marks a given fanotify group
can have.  Since fanotify is gated on CAP_SYS_ADMIN this was not seen as
a serious DoS threat.  This patch implements a default of 8192, the same as
inotify to work towards removing the CAP_SYS_ADMIN gating and eliminating
the default DoS'able status.
