pack-bitmap: drop unused max_bitmaps parameter

The `max_bitmaps` parameter in `bitmap_writer_select_commits()` was
introduced back in 7cc8f97108 (pack-objects: implement bitmap writing,
2013-12-21), making it original to the bitmap implementation in Git
itself.

When that patch was merged via 0f9e62e084 (Merge branch
'jk/pack-bitmap', 2014-02-27), its sole caller in builtin/pack-objects.c
passed a value of "-1" for `max_bitmaps`, indicating no limit.

Since then, the only other caller (in midx.c, added via c528e17966
(pack-bitmap: write multi-pack bitmaps, 2021-08-31)) also uses a value
of "-1" for `max_bitmaps`.

Since no callers have needed a finite limit for the `max_bitmaps`
parameter in the nearly decade that has passed since 0f9e62e084, let's
remove the parameter and any dead pieces of code connected to it.
