Remove eloop-threshold.h

On both Linux and Hurd the __eloop_threshold() is always a constant
(40 and 32 respectively), so there is no need to always call
__sysconf (_SC_SYMLOOP_MAX) for Linux case (!SYMLOOP_MAX).  To avoid
a name clash with gnulib, rename the new file min-eloop-threshold.h.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and with a build for x86_64-gnu.
