Fixed an issue with hqueue scheduler when python binary is set to From HQClient which could cause an error in some shells on Linux. 'Default' option now just uses 'python' on Linux.

18.0.386

Changed local scheduler, hqueue and tractor to never set HOUDINI_MAXTHREADS unless the corresponding parameter is set.

Previously this would be set to match the number of slots (local,tractor) or number of 'cpus' (hqueue) in the case that HOUDINI_MAXTHREADS was not explicitly set.

The recommended work flow is to explicitly set Houdini Max Threads via the scheduler job parm, or to set the 'single' flag if available. For example the ROP Mantra Render TOP node automatically adds the local scheduler 'single' job parm and enables it.
