ui/gtk: limit virtual console max update interval
Limit the virtual console maximum update interval to
GUI_REFRESH_INTERVAL_DEFAULT. This papers over a integer
overflow bug in gtk3 on Windows where the reported monitor
refresh frequency can be much smaller than the real refresh
frequency.

The gtk bug report can be found here:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/3394

On my Windows 10 system gtk reports a monitor refresh rate of
1.511Hz instead of 60.031Hz and slows down the screen update
rate in qemu to a crawl. Provided you are affected by the gtk
bug on Windows, these are the steps to reproduce the issue:

Start qemu with -display gtk and activate all qemu virtual
consoles and notice the reduced qemu refresh rate. Activating
all virtual consoles is necessary, because gui_update() in
ui/console.c uses the minimum of all display change listeners
update interval and not yet activated virtual consoles report
the default update interval (30ms).
