[PATCH 3/3] init/Kconfig: make config INIT_ENV_ARG_LIMIT user-configurable

INIT_ENV_ARG_LIMIT is defined without a prompt string (`int`), making it
a hidden Kconfig symbol that defaults to 32 (or 128 for UML) and cannot
be configured in `make menuconfig`.

Now that CONFIG_COMMAND_LINE_SIZE is configurable across all architectures,
users who select larger kernel command lines (e.g., 4096 bytes) may pass
more than 32 command-line arguments or environment variables (`foo=bar`) to
`/sbin/init`. If INIT_ENV_ARG_LIMIT remains hardcoded at 32, any argument
after the 32nd is silently dropped when the kernel executes init.

Add a prompt string ("Maximum number of kernel command line arguments") and
a `range 32 4096` to `config INIT_ENV_ARG_LIMIT` so that users can
configure their init argument and environment variable limit when needed,
while preserving the existing default of 32 for standard builds.
