[config] Remove blockmaxsize option
The blockmaxsize option was marked as deprecated in V0.15.1, and code was added to convert provided blockmaxsize into blockmaxweight. However, this code was incorrectly implemented, and blockmaxsize was silently ignored. No users have complained about blockmaxsize being ignored, so just remove it in V0.17.

+Miner block size removed
+------------------------
+
+The `-blockmaxsize` option for miners to limit their blocks' sizes was
+deprecated in V0.15.1, and has now been removed. Miners should use the
+`-blockmaxweight` option if they want to limit the weight of their blocks'
+weights.
