Put a high max limit of 60,000 on Special:LinkSearch

LinkSearch uses inefficient paging. Previously there was no
max limit, then it was 10,000, but people on enwiki are complaining,
so put it up to something high, like 60,000, to fix the immediate
issue.

Special page should of course be changed to use efficient paging.
