The existing limit for the reports was a global METRICS_MAX cap. However on systems with a verbose socket or with many sockets that is easily hit and because sockets are contacted in parallel random parts of the following report generators are skipped. It seems better to instead make the limit per-source so that one that is overly verbose cannot starve the others. Because we already have METRICS_LINKS_MAX this does not add a global limit - we could add one but it would have the same problem as METRICS_MAX before, some report would be cut that might be important (or we need to be explicit about ordering but even then its problematic if we have two "important" ones and one is buggy and generates too much data). Note that this keeps the METRICS_PER_SOURCE_MAX at 4096 because io.systemd.Manager reports a lot, on my idle test VM already ~3k. We also now report any issue with the metric instead of just the first one in verb_metrics.
