Remove fixed limit on number of guests, and lguests array.

Browse Source 
Back when we had all the Guest state in the switcher, we had a fixed
array of them.  This is no longer necessary.

If we switch the network code to using random_ether_addr (46 bits is
enough to avoid clashes), we can get rid of the concept of "guest id"
altogether.
