ptserver: Increase length limit of namelist, idlist, prlist, prentries
An implementation limit of those lists was introduced in commit
a0ffea098d8c5c5b46c6bf86a12d28d6e7096685 to prevent using unlimited
amounts of memory in ptserver and the client. Subsequent reports
indicate that the chosen limits are small enough to restrict
functionality currently in use at some sites where membership lists
exceed the current limit. Since this is just an implementation-
defined limit and can freely change from release to release, increase
the threshold by an order of magnitude to preserve functionality for
existing deployments while still retaining some protection against
attacker-controlled excessive memory allocation.
