Increase vCore limit for KVM under SCALE

Description

FreeNAS and TrueNAS CORE have a limit of 16 vCores under bhyve . This exists due to hardcoded limits in bhyve. The same limit has been carried over into TrueNAS SCALE. However, the limit in KVM is 256 virtual CPU's per guest . The virtual machine creation limitations for TrueNAS SCALE should be increased to match the limitations in KVM as compared to bhyve.

For reference, this is how we compute the maximum allowed limit - ( for scale it is 255 ) - https://github.com/freenas/freenas/blob/cf9721ecc451788b55b7eae4b33564a7576f222d/src/middlewared/middlewared/plugins/vm/vms.py#L161

can you please confirm your SCALE version ? I believe SCALE nightlies should already support this limit.
