Remove support for -no-largefile

It's 2016, and file sizes larger than 4G are common, so
-no-largefile is something we really shouldn't support
anymore.

For now left the implementation as is, just removed the
configurability from the command line. But this should
really get replaced by decent configure checks that
check for 64bit stat() vs stat64() vs 32bit stat().
