Andres Freund d38bab5edd pgbench: Increase RLIMIT_NOFILE if necessary
pgbench already had code to check if the soft rlimit is too low for the
specified number of connections. If too low, it errored out, telling the user
to increase the limit.

However, we can do better: If the hard limit allows, increase the soft limit
to be sufficiently for the number of connections.

It is common for the soft limit to be considerably lower than the hard limit,
due to the danger of soft limits > 1024 breaking programs that use the
select(2), as explained in [1].
