In theory this is a backwards incompatible protocol change.
Practically, no existing Silent Payments wallets out there supports
sending to such a high quantity of recipients (not even in terms of
_total_ number of recipients), so the K_max limit should be safe to
introduce, without any negative effects in the wallet ecosystem.
Introduce an optional "count" field for recipient objects.
Also update the documentation of the fields.
Introduce an optional "n_outputs" field as alternative to the detailed
"outputs" objects (the field was already specified, but not used so
far). Also update the documentation of the fields.
Test case: as the (only) recipient group contains 2324 addresses and
thus exceeds the K_max limit by one, sending fails.

Can be tested by
`$ ./bip-0352/reference.py ./bip-0352/send_and_receive_test_vectors.json`
Test case: even though there are 2324 outputs targeted to the recipient,
only 2323 are found due to the introduced K_max limit. Any
implementation following the new BIP protocol rule wouldn't create such
a transaction in the first place, but an attacker might do.

Can be tested by
`$ ./bip-0352/reference.py ./bip-0352/send_and_receive_test_vectors.json`
