Silent Limit on the number of subscribed topics, callback ignored

[joihn]

Env:
Esp8266, communication via TLS

Symptom:
When too many subscriber are registered, the last few one will never execute their callback.

reproducing
Subscribe to multiple topics (17 in my case) with this syntax

Adafruit_MQTT_Subscribe trigg1 = Adafruit_MQTT_Subscribe(&mqtt, "triggTopic1", MQTT_QOS_1);
trigg1.setCallback(foo);
mqtt.subscribe(&trigg1);

Adafruit_MQTT_Subscribe trigg2 = Adafruit_MQTT_Subscribe(&mqtt, "triggTopic2", MQTT_QOS_1);
trigg1.setCallback(bar);
mqtt.subscribe(&trigg2);

etc...
The last few subsriber will get ignored, silently (!!!!!) (they will never execute their callback, despite a successfull compilation, thus very confusing to debug )
There seems to be a silent hidden limit on the max. number of subscribed topics.

there is indeed a limit

Maybe a verbose failure when exceeding it would be a good idea.
