ps_crossselling Allow for configuration of number of orders analyzed

[lmeyer1]

Prerequisites

• I understand and accept the project's code of conduct
• I have already searched in existing features request and found no previous suggestion of this feature.

Is your feature request related to a problem?

The current release is not working on larger installations (see #20874) because too many orders are inspected.

There have been number of resolution attempts for this, but unfortunately the diverge in the number of orders analyzed (see commits PrestaShop/ps_crossselling@e3b11e2 and PrestaShop/ps_crossselling@a26cec6). This may be due to the fact that the optimum number may vary a lot depending on the number of orders and products in the shop and the average number of products per order.

Describe the solution you'd like

A better solution would be to make this number configurable and take a reasonable default value.

Alternatives you've considered

None. As long as the performance problem in #20874 is not solved, the module cannot be used in production due to excessive slowdown.

I saw it, but did not yet work on it. I have to look at caching this afternoon. I think it is an important lever to improve performance.
