Increasing the default RLIMIT_NOFILE

[Andrew Eikum <aeikum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

This is about the increase in the default RLIMIT_NOFILE to 256k, see
commit 8aeb1d317 and this pull request
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/10244

I think this is a great change. However, we have seen real
applications using over 300k handles when using the eventfd-backed
synchronization primitives implementation in Wine. Debian-derived
distros have set this limit to 1024*1024 by default for years. Raising
the limit to this number would help these applications, and would
unify around a number that is already in common use.

Thanks,
Andrew
