Fix IsomorphismPermGroupOrFailFpGroup to honor its second argument, which limits the coset table size that gets used before it gives up #5900

This examples works fine in GAP 4.13.1:

gap> F:=FreeGroup(2);;G:=F/[F.1^2, F.2^2];;
gap> IsomorphismPermGroupOrFailFpGroup(G, 100);
fail
gap> time;
1

But in GAP 4.14.0 is does not terminate.

This is a regression introduced in PR #5770.

I also added in a test case that verifies that the issue addressed by PR #5770 stays fixed.
