Comment (by thomasd3):

 Looking at this, I found the something: I have a tool called jBridgeM
 (it's used to wrap x86 audio plugins in a x64 container) and can be found
 here: https://jstuff.wordpress.com/jbridgem/

 It is the one that installed the plist files with maxfiles / maxproc, not
 the OS update

 The content of the file is:

 [thomas:/Library/LaunchDaemons] $ cat limit.maxfiles.plist
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
 "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
 <plist version="1.0">
 <dict>
 <key>Label</key>
 <string>limit.maxfiles</string>
 <key>ProgramArguments</key>
 <array>
 <string>launchctl</string>
 <string>limit</string>
 <string>maxfiles</string>
 <string>8192</string>
 <string>9223372036854775807</string>
 </array>
 <key>RunAtLoad</key>
 <true/>
 <key>ServiceIPC</key>
 <false/>
 <key>CreatedByjBridgeM</key>

 </plist>
