Add max limit to agent_down_time

The agent_down_time ends up being passed to an eventlet green-thread;
under the hood, this uses a CPython C-types interface with a limitation
of (2^32 / 2 - 1) INT_MAX (as defined in C) where int is usually 32 bits

I have set the max value to (2^32 / 2 - 1)/1000 as agent_down_time
configured in seconds, this ends up being 2147483.

This patch is required as passing a larger number
causes this error: OverflowError: timeout is too large

If a user currently has a value larger than (2^32 / 2 - 1)/1000 set,
Neutron Server will fail to start and will print out a very helpful
error message.

The config option ``agent_down_time`` is now limited to a maximum value of
`2147483`, as neutron-server will fail to start if it is configured higher.
