Problem/Motivation

A file upload element always has an information message describing what the upload limit is.
When a form has a total upload limit, this is also shown. This results in confusing issues:

So the single file can be larger than the weboform total limit. This is confusing to the user.

Steps to reproduce

* Add a file element to a form
* Set an upload limit for the form

Proposed resolution

When a form upload limit is set, unset the information message for the single file limit and replace it with a form-wide message:
Default: "XXX limit per file. The accumulated size of all files in this form cannot exceed XXX"
But if the file limit is heigher than the form limit, omit the file limit, because you will never be able to use it:
"The accumulated size of all files in this form cannot exceed XXX"
