Reconsider 20 recipients limit #139

What were you trying to do

Trying to decrypt a file with 69 recipients.

What happened

$ age --decrypt --identity /home/ryantm/.ssh/id_rsa monit.pem
Error: too many recipients
[ Did age not do what you expected? Could an error be more useful? Tell us: https://filippo.io/age/report ]

What I expected

The file gets decrypted.

I found a part of the code where it limits the recipient number of decrypted messages to 20:

age/age.go

Line 127 in 0c650f8

if len(hdr.Recipients) > 20 {

Can we expect that age will be limited to 20 recipients or is this a temporary limitation?
