prep_exclude: remove the artificial PATH_MAX limit
This fixes a segfault in git-status with long paths on Windows, where PATH_MAX is only 260. This also fixes the problem of silently ignoring .gitignore if the full path exceeds PATH_MAX. Now add_excludes_from_file() will report if it gets ENAMETOOLONG.
