 rtems: Simplify semaphore configuration

 The MrsP semaphore implementation predates the addition of
 self-contained synchronization objects.  At this time, the potential
 memory reduction was justified considering the more complex
 configuration and additional use of the workspace.  With the
 availability of self-contained synchronization options, e.g. POSIX
 mutexes, this is no longer justified.  Memory constrained applications
 should use the self-contained synchronization objects.   Remove the
 CONFIGURE_MAXIMUM_MRSP_SEMAPHORES configuration option. This has only an
 impact on applications which use SMP and a large number of scheduler
 instances.

 Update #3833.
