Willy Tarreau 693688e734 MINOR: config: automatically preset MAX_THREADS based on MAX_TGROUPS
MAX_THREADS was not changed when setting MAX_TGROUPS, which still limits
some possibilities. Let's preset it to 4 * LONGBITS when MAX_TGROUPS is
larger than 1, or LONGBITS when it's set to 1. This means that the new
default value is 256 threads.

The rationale behind this is that the main use of thread groups is
mostly to address NUMA issues and that we don't necessarily need large
thread counts when using many groups, and 256 threads is already plenty
even on quite large systems.

For now it's important not to go too far because some internal structs
are arrays of MAX_THREADS entries, for example accept_queue_ring, which
is around 8kB per thread. Such structures will need to become dynamic
before defaulting to large thread counts (at 4096 threads max the
accept queues would require 32 MB RAM alone).
