Summary: use FILENAME_MAX for all filenames, since its < MAXPDSTRING

Initial Comment:
On Windows, FILENAME_MAX is much smaller than MAXPDSTRING, so I replaced MAXPDSTRING with FILENAME_MAX everywhere I could find that is related to filenames.  FILENAME_MAX is a POSIX standard macro for defining the max length of a complete filename.

The current situation could result in crashes on Windows.
