Raise instantiate max

We've had users hit the instantiation limit for things that aren't actually causing an infinite recursion of type/function instantiation in the compiler.

Prior to this PR the limit was 256 but that's somewhat arbitrary.

We don't have any evidence that 512 would lead to painfully long compile but we do have evidence that 256 can sometimes be too low.

Let's raise it.
