Don't inforce an upper bound on kern.ngroups. The INT_MAX-1 limit was
too high due to several overflows. The actual limit is somewhere in the neighborhood of INT_MAX/4 on 64-bit machines, but most systems could not support such a limit due to a lack of memory and the cost of duplicate credentials. Reported by: bde
