OSX Yosemite doesn't read /etc/launchd.conf

Since this file is not read by Yosemite, we should update the section in README.md, "Updating the maximum number of open file descriptors". Though, I am not sure now how to set the ulimit automatically at launch...

I looked around a bit online for info on how to automatically set the max # of open files on launch and I came across this: http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/ops/tuning/open-files-limit/

I think it'd be fine to just mention in the readme that in Yosemite, the /etc/launchd.conf fix doesn't work and maybe link to an alternate method for Yosemite.

It can not be read from /etc/launchd.conf caused by the security concerns , you guys can read the man file on launchctl command
