Description

**Describe the bug**
Setting {maxHeight: '500px'} in the options appears to have no effect, and the editor continues to adjust height to the content.

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Create a new editor with the option above
2. Fill it with a lot of content
4. See that the editor does not respect the max height.

**Expected behavior**
The editor should expand up to the size defined and then grow now larger, with y overflow scrolling at that point.

** Version information **
- OS: MacOS 11
- Browser: Safari 14 and Chrome 83
- EasyMDE version: 2.10.1

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in EasyMDE 2.10.1 using a new editor configured with maxHeight: '500px' and enough content to exceed that height. Inspect the editor's sizing and overflow behavior, then verify that it stops growing at the configured maximum and provides vertical scrolling.
