security: add per-client stream limit in PulseAudio protocol

There was no limit on the number of streams a single client could
create. Each stream allocates a 4MB ring buffer, allowing a malicious
client to exhaust server memory. Add a configurable pulse.max-streams
property (default 64) to limit streams per client.
