Hardcoded limit on the number of meta-connections
...enerally a bad idea.
One of the greatest things that can happen to a tool is an usage its
creators hadn't thought of, and hardcoded parameters make this
difficult. That being said, would something bad happen if different
nodes used a different limit in the same network? I see that the code
in periodic_handler() is already being careful not to disconnect
another node if we are its only link to the rest of the network.
If that's ok, I can write patches for this (apply the limit whatever
the value of AutoConnect, and add the new "MaxMetaConnections" option
-- or whatever more descriptive...
