Switch maximum of GUC huge_page_size to MAX_KILOBYTES

As documented in guc.h, MAX_KILOBYTES is used to cap GUC parameters that
are measured in kilobytes of memory.  This way, size_t values can fit in
builds where sizeof(size_t) is 4 bytes.

Unfortunately, huge_page_size has missed this aspect, causing
calculation failures when setting this GUC to a value higher than
MAX_KILOBYTES, up to INT_MAX.

Oversight in d2bddc2500fb.  No backpatch is done, based on the lack of
complaints.
