[vtk-developers] fix for vtkMultiThreader.cxx

Lines 146 through 151 of vtkMultiThreader.cxx set an arbitrary maximum
limit on the number of available threads.

vtkMultiThreader.cxx:
    // Lets limit the number of threads to 8
    if (num > 8)
      {
      num = 8;
      }

There is no reason to set an arbitrary upper limit, especially as the
code goes to some trouble to find the number of processors online.
I suggest to delete these lines.
