Prevent users from entering large session lifetimes

[kikmedia]

Affected version(s)
4.4.x, all (and probably all later versions including 4.7.)

Description
If an user enters a very long session lifetime in backend, he will furthermore not be able to log in again.
How to reproduce
Go to backend -> settings and enter a unusually large value für session expiration, for example 360000000000 seconds. Log out. Try to log in again.

IMO, this setting should only be able to accept reasonable values. Any session longer than a week (or a month, or a year) should not to be accepted if the value becomes too large.

May be it needs to be checked against PHP_INT_MAX?

Should only affect 4.4.x, as the setting is no more present in 4.7. As I understand, right now in 4.7 it is no more existent in the BE, but so far not implemented in CM.
Do we already check these type of files (config) in any way, if they are manualy changed? Because checking the setting in the BE seems not enough for 4.7.x (because it doesn't have this setting).

May be a "maxval" or "maxlength" in the tl_session.sessionTimeout DCA eval would be a save but still flexible way.
