    xdr: Fix xdr_string
    
    Forcing maxsize to RPC_MAXDATASIZE breaks code that deliberately uses
    XDR with longer strings than permitted by SunRPC.
    
    MFC after:      1 week
    Fixes:          6448ec89e739 (" * limit size of buffers to RPC_MAXDATASIZE")
    Fixes:          e17d7ab869bb ("xdr_string: don't leak strings with xdr_free")
