DOC: configuration: update maxconn description

Browse Source 
Let's update maxconn keyword description, in order to make it clear, which
setting has the precedence over the global.maxconn and the SYSTEM_MAXCONN if
set.

maxconn <number>
Sets the maximum per-process number of concurrent connections to <number>. It
is equivalent to the command-line argument "-n". Proxies will stop accepting
connections when this limit is reached. The "ulimit-n" parameter is
automatically adjusted according to this value. See also "ulimit-n". Note:
the "select" poller cannot reliably use more than 1024 file descriptors on
some platforms. If your platform only supports select and reports "select
FAILED" on startup, you need to reduce maxconn until it works (slightly
below 500 in general). If this value is not set, it will automatically be
calculated based on the current file descriptors limit reported by the
"ulimit -n" command, possibly reduced to a lower value if a memory limit
is enforced, based on the buffer size, memory allocated to compression, SSL
cache size, and use or not of SSL and the associated maxsslconn (which can
also be automatic). In any case, the fd-hard-limit applies if set.
is equivalent to the command-line argument "-n". The value provided in
command-line argument via "-n" takes the precedence over the maxconn value set
in the global section. Haproxy process could be also compiled with
SYSTEM_MAXCONN compile-time variable, which is served in this case as the
system maxconn maximum. Again, the command-line "-n" argument allows at
runtime to bypass SYSTEM_MAXCONN limit, if set. Proxies will stop accepting
connections when maxconn is reached. The process soft file descriptor limit
(could be obtained with "ulimit -n" command) is automatically adjusted
according to provided maxconn. See also "ulimit-n". Note: the "select" poller
cannot reliably use more than 1024 file descriptors on some platforms. If your
platform only supports select and reports "select FAILED" on startup, you need
to reduce the maxconn until it works (slightly below 500 in general). If
maxconn value is not set, it will be automatically calculated based on the
current file descriptors limits, reported by the "ulimit -nH" command (we take
the maximum between the hard and soft values), then automatic value will be
possibly reduced by "fd-hard-limit" and by memory limit, if the latter was
enforced via "-m" command line option. Automatic value is also dependent from
the buffer size, memory allocated to compression, SSL cache size, and the use
or not of SSL and the associated maxsslconn (which can also be automatic).
