virFileReadLimFD always returns null-terminated data. To that end, it has to
add one to the maximum file size. If the maxium file size is INT_MAX, this
triggers a signed integer overflow.
There is no instance left where a caller would call virFileReadLimFD with a
maxium file size of INT_MAX. Make virFileReadLimFD error out if the maximum
file size is INT_MAX to prevent the reintroduction of this issue.
