Automatically adjust ulimit for Mac/Linux when running Code

[jagreehal]

On OSX (10.11.2) When I set externalConsole to false I encounter EMFILE errors.

By running

var exec = require('child_process').exec;
exec('ulimit -a', function (error, stdout, stderr) {
  console.log('stdout:', stdout);
});

It looks like the the limit for open files is 1024.

Everything is fine when when setting externalConsole to true as the size is what's specified in bash_profile (4096).

I'd really like to use the VSCode console so how can I set the ulimit?
