vpp_config: leave vm.max_map_count alone by default
Do not set vm.max_map_count to 3096 by default. That value is an order
of magnitude smaller than current distro defaults, and causes
seemingly "random" severe application failures; known to occur when
running Brave, Firefox, and VirtualBox to name but a few.
Type: fix
Change-Id: Ibe7518d92c3be9a4704972c9d504777776f924dc
