We cannot control anymore the maximum number of URLs using the API
because now we are using check-in, that has no such limit.
We could theoretically clamp the number of URLs to measure after
the call to check-in, and still honour the setting.
Yet, the right thing to do seems to introduce a max runtime variable
because that is what desktop and mobile do.
Thus, introduce code that warns the user about the change in the
settings, should they have set the URL limit to nonzero.
We are going to do a best effort conversion from the URL limit to
the maximum runtime for the rest of 2021.
Since then, we will silently ignore the URL limit.

* ongoing work
* reduce diff with master
* feat(inputloader): use the check-in API
Part of https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1299
* fix: better naming for a variable
* chore: add more tests
* fix: add one more TODO
This is how I did it:
1. `git clone https://github.com/ooni/probe-engine internal/engine`
2. ```
(cd internal/engine && git describe --tags)
v0.23.0
```
3. `nvim go.mod` (merging `go.mod` with `internal/engine/go.mod`
4. `rm -rf internal/.git internal/engine/go.{mod,sum}`
5. `git add internal/engine`
6. `find . -type f -name \*.go -exec sed -i 's@/ooni/probe-engine@/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/engine@g' {} \;`
7. `go build ./...` (passes)
8. `go test -race ./...` (temporary failure on RiseupVPN)
9. `go mod tidy`
10. this commit message
Once this piece of work is done, we can build a new version of `ooniprobe` that
is using `internal/engine` directly. We need to do more work to ensure all the
other functionality in `probe-engine` (e.g. making mobile packages) are still WAI.
