Modern IDB: Explore raising the maxfiles limit for the Databases xpc on OS X

If you run `launchctl limit maxfiles`, you see that by default it is 256.

This prevents a Safari user from having many tabs open that all use databases, for example, as SQLite stops being able to open new database files.
