[PATCH alsa-lib] control: ctlparse - use type-specific bound on element count

Using a fixed bound of 128 means that too many values may be set for an
INTEGER64 type and that any elements past 128 are out of reach for BYTE
type controls.

Derive the maximum number of elements from the type so that the full
range is parsed for all types.
