PGF service & minibar: put a limit on the number of parse trees

+ In the PGF web service API, the commands parse, translate and translategroup
  now accept a limit parameter. It limits the number of parse trees returned.
  If no limit is given, the behaviour is backwards compatible, i.e. no limit
  is applied.
+ In minibar, the limit is now set to 25 by default.

This change is based on a suggestion by Kaarel Kaljurand.
