Ideally we should permit a "MaxSessions unlimited" that allows creation
of as many sessions as there are available file descriptors to serve
them. This would require dynamic allocation of the channels list
(perhaps with some protection against fragmentation as channels close),
similar changes to the channels list and an audit of both the session
and channels code to ensure that they fail gracefully when they run out
of file descriptors.

Did you mean session list here? The channel list is already dynamic
(however it uses xrealloc so an allocation failure will kill the
connection).
