While working on property testing in #26172 we discovered there are scenarios where the reconciler will produce more than the expected number of placements. Testing of those scenarios at the whole-scheduler level shows that this gets handled correctly downstream of the reconciler, but this makes it harder to reason about reconciler behavior. Cap the number of placements in the reconciler.
