rda, glusterd: Change the max of rda-cache-limit to INFINITY

Issue:
The max value of rda-cache-limit is 1GB before this patch.
When parallel-readdir is enabled, there will be many instances of
readdir-ahead, hence the rda-cache-limit depends on the number of
instances. Eg: On a volume with distribute count 4, rda-cache-limit
when parallel-readdir is enabled, will be 4GB instead of 1GB.
Consider a followinf sequence of operations:
- Enable parallel readdir
- Set rda-cache-limit to lets say 3GB
- Disable parallel-readdir, this results in one instance of readdir-ahead
  and the rda-cache-limit will be back to 1GB, but the current value is 3GB
  and hence the mount will stop working as 3GB > max 1GB.

Solution:
To fix this, we can limit the cache to 1GB even when parallel-readdir
is enabled. But there is no necessity to limit the cache to 1GB, it
can be increased if the system has enough resources. Hence getting rid
of the rda-cache-limit max value is more apt. If we just change the
rda-cache-limit max to INFINITY, we will render older(<3.11) clients
broken, when the rda-cache-limit is set to > 1GB (as the older clients
still expect a value < 1GB). To safely change the max value of
rda-cache-limit to INFINITY, add a check in glusted to verify all
the clients are > 3.11 if the value exceeds 1GB.
