Assume long-running, high-data-rate contacts have infinite capacity

Felix Walter requested to merge hotfix/contact-size-overflow into master

This allows for adding "infinite capacity" contacts for which the capacity value is not touched by the router. Note that the bundle size limit of INT32_MAX is still in place.

Why? -> Previously, we assumed that no more than INT32_MAX bytes can be transmitted during a single contact, which is unrealistic especially for long-running/persistent contacts. The forwarding component rewrite will resolve this once and for all in a clean manner.
