[FLINK-8125] [core] Introduce limiting of file system connections
## What is the purpose of the change
This change introduces a way to limit the number of streams that Flink
FileSystems concurrently open.
For example, for very small HDFS clusters with few RPC handlers, a large
Flink job trying to build up many connections during a checkpoint causes
failures due to rejected connections.
For example, by adding setting like `fs.hdfs.limit.total: 128`, this would
limit the total number of connections per TaskManager to the filesystem with
scheme "hdfs" to 128.
## Brief change log
- Adds the `LimitedConnectionsFileSystem` which can wrap existing file
systems and track and limit the number of input- and output streams
- Adds code to `FileSystem` to wrap the file system factories in
`ConnectionLimitingFactory` which wraps the file system in a
`LimitedConnectionsFileSystem` if connection limiting is configured.
- Adds documentation for Flink's file system support in general,
including the here added configuration settings
## Verifying this change
- This change is covered by various unit tests:
- `LimitedConnectionsFileSystemTest`
