rS327598: Remove LINK_MAX.

Summary

After recent changes to change filesystems to use filesystem-specific
limits, LINK_MAX is no longer used in the base system. Applications
should in theory be able to cope with a lack of LINK_MAX by using
pathconf().

Test Plan

tinderbox passed
need to do an exp-run
