Add maxlength HTML attribute to Input when using maxLength()

[ralphmorris]

I've just noticed when using the maxLength method on a form component the only validation is on the backend. It would be a nice feature for the user if it also output the maxlength HTML attribute so that the input stops allowing anything after the limit, or even better, a counter, as this would stop the user typing more in the first place rather than saving and getting an error message.

I am aware of the tips/packages available that do this with live(), helperText(), but think it would be better to have a simple built in frontend solution using native HTML and don't really want to reach for a plugin for something like this. Just my opinion :)

Thanks!
