[CMake] Why does cmake adds /STACK:10000000 for msvc linker?

[Sahn Lam]

Don't know the reason behind this, but this is how we unset it:

    #
    # Remove /STACK:10000000 set by CMake. This value for stack size
    # is very high, limiting the number of threads we can spawn.
    # Default value used by Windows is 1MB which is good enough.
    #
    STRING(REGEX REPLACE "/STACK:[0-9]+" ""
        CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS "${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS}")
