[Bug libc/1535] New: Make _SC_CHILD_MAX retort RLIMIT_NPROC soft resource limit?

["michael dot kerrisk at gmx dot net" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

(On Linux/x86), sysconf(_SC_CHILD_MAX) always reports 999, regardless of the
current setting of the RLIMIT_NPROC soft resource limit.  Would it not make more
sense to return the current value of the RLIMIT_NPROC soft resource limit?
