Dirk Mueller c0a8699820 Run rootwrap with lower fd ulimit by default
On Python 2.x, a subprocess.Popen() with close_fds=True will
fork and then close filedescriptors range(3..os.sysconf("SC_OPEN_MAX")),
which thanks to Kernel PTI (Kaiser patches) is significantly slower
in 2018 when the range is very large. With a soft limit of 1048576,
benchmark.py reports an overhead of ~ 400ms without this patch and 2ms
with the patch applied. This patch adds a configuration option and
sets a more sensible default of 1024 file descriptor limit by default.
