minidlna: file descriptor 3794 too big for select

I just installed minidlna 1.1.3 on my system from ports and ran into the
problem described in Stefan Essers' bug report 185155.

Checking the source and the patch file extra-patch-kqueue I see that Stefan's
suggested workaround has been included. However, the file upnpevents.c didn't
'know' about the increased FD_SETSIZE value so it failed with the following
fatal error:

upnpevents.c:423: fatal: upnpevents_selectfds: file descriptor 3794 too big for select, limit is 1024

So...I added a #define for FD_SETSIZE to the top of that file and things seem
to be working ok now. Here's my simple patch:
