[tor-relays] Exit relay: ERROR -- No Descriptor Available

[William Kane]

I think this is related to available file system descriptors.

Try increasing the number of descriptors, around 8192 should be fine
for most relays.

If running systemd, edit the service (systemctl edit <service_name>)
and append the following, then restart:

[Service]
LimitNOFILE=8192

You might also need to change limits.conf, depending on your brew of
linux it might be placed in a different directory but generally it
remains in /etc/security.
