mod_bookmarks2: Use same default as mod_pep for max_items Should fix the issue with max items until the proper "max" can be used, by following the configured max. While "max" is already in trunk, it's not easily usable in 0.11.x This limit and option was added to mod_pep in Prosody rev aefb96a52f5f

Introduction
============

This module makes Prosody authenticate users against PAM (Linux
Pluggable Authentication Modules)

============

The module depends on [lua-pam](https://github.com/devurandom/lua-pam)
and [LuaPosix](https://github.com/luaposix/luaposix).

Setup
=====

Create a `/etc/pam.d/xmpp` with something like this:

    auth    [success=1 default=ignore]  pam_unix.so obscure sha512 nodelay
    auth    requisite           pam_deny.so
    auth    required            pam_permit.so

And switch authentication provider in the Prosody config:

    authentication = "pam"
