Just use size_t for emacs_limb_t

* src/emacs-module.h.in: Do not include limits.h; no longer needed.
(emacs_limb_t, EMACS_LIMB_MAX): Now size_t and SIZE_MAX.

-will prefer a 64-bit limb and will default to unsigned long if that is
-wide enough.  Note that this is an internal micro-optimization.  Users
