Actually any ng_item of data type requires an mbuf to be connected
to it, and thus I suggest to use mbuf limits to drive ng_item limits.

If we got an item leak with mbufs being properly freed, then we've
got a bug to fix, and any limit won't work in long run time. I never
evidenced such a bug, but there complaints on hitting limit at
traffic bursts. As said, with previous 512 item limit I experienced
that even on a laptop.

Any objections on removing the limit, guys?
