Summary
The VF2Layout pass is documented as setting a trial limit equivalent to the being based on the number of edges of the interaction or connectivity graph. Additionally it supports being a negative value to run unbounded. However, when vf2 layout was ported to rust in #14056 this behavior was not preserved. It was not able to handle negative values and also a value of None was treated as unbounded. This commit corrects these oversights so the argument to the pass is handled correctly as documented.
