    If $f$ is continuous or just integrable , $lim_n to infty left(int_0^1 |f(x)|^n, dxright)^1/n = sup_x in [0,1] f(x)$ is a well known result but you can arrive at the conclusion with a squeezing argument as hinted.

For any large $x$ we have
$$ int_0^1t^-tx,dt = int_0^1expleft(-x tlog tright),dt = sum_ngeq 0fracx^nn!int_0^1t^n(-log t)^n,dt =sum_ngeq 0fracx^nn!(n+1)^n+1$$
If we call this entire function $f(x)$, the wanted limit equals
$$explim_xto +inftyfraclog f(x)x stackreldH= explim_xto +inftyfracf'(x)f(x)=explim_xto +inftyfracint_0^1(-tlog t)t^-tx,dtint_0^1t^-tx,dt$$
that is $colorrede^1/e$ since $t^-tx$ converges in distribution to $Ccdotdeltaleft(t-frac1eright)$.

    A maximum for $t^-t$ on $[0,1]$ is attained at $t = e^-1.$



    With $0 < t < 1,$ we have



    $$t^-tx = exp(-t ln t)^x leqslant exp(e^-1)^x \ implies left(int_0^1 t^-tx , dtright)^1/x leqslant exp(e^-1).$$



    Using continuity, for any small $epsilon$, there is an interval $[e^-1 - delta, e^-1 + delta] subset [0,1]$ where $t^-t > exp(e^-1) - epsilon$ and



    $$left(int_0^1 t^-tx , dtright)^1/x geqslant left(int_exp(e^-1) - delta^exp(e^-1) + delta t^-tx , dtright)^1/x > (exp(e^-1)- epsilon)(2 delta)^1/x. $$



    Since $(2delta)^1/x to 1$ as $x to infty$ and $epsilon$ can be arbitrarily small, the squeeze theorem yields



    $$lim_x to inftyleft(int_0^1 t^-tx , dtright)^1/x = exp(e^-1)$$
