Description

### The required feature described as a wish

As a Admin/Operator, I would like to see the maximum number of volumes that can be attached to a hypervisor.

In Configuration > Hypervisor capablity

Also, we cannot edit the max volumes supported form the UI

Currently, the api supports it

https://cloudstack.apache.org/api/apidocs-4.22/apis/listHypervisorCapabilities.html
https://cloudstack.apache.org/api/apidocs-4.22/apis/updateHypervisorCapabilities.html

There have been issues with volume attachments in past , setting a max value will help in minimizing them

Research direction

Start at Configuration > Hypervisor capability and inspect the listHypervisorCapabilities and updateHypervisorCapabilities API entries linked in the issue. Trace how the maximum volume value is presented and updated in the UI. Done means the maximum supported volumes are visible and editable, with the update retained through the existing API.
