Today the maximum number of event channels for a guest is defaulting

e.g. the Linux kernel uses 7 event channels per vcpu, limiting the

Instead of requiring to specify the allowed number of event channels
via the "event_channels" domain config option, make the default
depend on the maximum number of vcpus of the guest.
In order not to regress current configs use 1023 as the minimum
default setting.

I suspect I regressed this by making it not actually dead code.
1023 is the 32bit EVT 2L ABI limit, but until I moved max_evtchn into
the createdomain hypercall, I'm pretty sure a limit never used to get set.
In 4.11 I'm seeing it being set via xc_domain_set_max_evtchn().
