QKeySequenceEdit: add a maximumSquenceLength property

At the very least, it would be important to have a single combination
key sequence. This is commonly seen in keyboard shortcut editors where
QKeySequenceEdit is very much applicable.

[ChangeLog][QtWidgets][QKeySequenceEdit] Added a maximumSquenceLength
property.
