Bug description:
  [Impact]
  RADOS gateway can run out of sockets prior to consuming the CPU and memory resources on the server on which it is running.

  [Test Case]
  Deploy RGW to a large server; scale test - RGW processes will only be able to service around 100 open connections.

  [Regression Potential]
  Medium; the fix introduces a new configuration option for civetweb (the web connector for RGW) to allow the max connections to be set via configuration, rather than being set during compilation; improvement has been accepted upstream in the civetweb project.

  [Original Bug Report]
  Civetweb does not offer an option for configuring the maximum number of sockets available. Some users run out of sockets and are left with no workaround.

  This patch adds a new user-configurable parameter, "max_connections".
