alsa-mixer: Implement support for setting element specific upper limits for volume.
This feature is mainly useful in embedded systems that have built-in speakers. In such situations the full audio path is known beforehand, so it's possible to know what is the maximum sensible volume, and any higher volume can be disabled. The volume limit is set in path configuration files in the [Element] section, using option "volume-limit". The value is the desired maximum volume step of the volume element.
