Limit the humidity ventilation time #4

When it's humid outside (e.g. >= 80%), the Itho sensor seems to have a hard time reporting values below 75%, which roughly corresponds with 65% humidity in the actual room; even after ventilation for over two hours.

Ventilating that long is a waste of energy, an results in other rooms not being ventilated enough (as their speeds are reduced). As such we should simply enforce an upper limit on the time to ventilate a humid room. A limit of 90 minutes should be sufficient.
