core: always use "infinity" for no upper limit instead of "max" (#3417)
Recently added cgroup unified hierarchy support uses "max" in configurations for no upper limit. While consistent with what the kernel uses for no upper limit, it is inconsistent with what systemd uses for other controllers such as memory or pids. There's no point in introducing another term. Update cgroup unified hierarchy support so that "infinity" is the only term that systemd uses for no upper limit.
