Make single diff patch limit configurable

- Creates a new column to hold the single patch limit value on
application_settings
- Allows updating this value through the application_settings API
- Calculates single diff patch collapsing limit based on
diff_max_patch_bytes column
- Updates diff limit documentation
- Adds documentation (with warning) as of how one can update this limit

Currently we rely on different sources to present diffs, these include:
- Rugged gem
- Gitaly service
- Database (through `merge_request_diff_files`)
- Redis (cached highlighted diffs)
We're constantly moving Rugged calls to Gitaly and the progress can be followed through [Gitaly repo](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly).

Limits that act onto each diff file of a collection. Files number, lines number and files size are considered.
```ruby
Gitlab::Git::Diff::COLLAPSE_LIMIT = 10.kilobytes
```
#### Expandable patches (collapsed)
File diff will be collapsed (but be expandable) if it is larger than 10 kilobytes.
Diff patches are collapsed when surpassing 10% of the value set in `ApplicationSettings#diff_max_patch_bytes`.
That is, it's equivalent to 10kb if the maximum allowed value is 100kb.
The diff will still be persisted and expandable if the patch size doesn't
surpass `ApplicationSettings#diff_max_patch_bytes`.
*Note:* Although this nomenclature (Collapsing) is also used on Gitaly, this limit is only used on GitLab (hardcoded - not sent to Gitaly).
Gitaly will only return `Diff.Collapsed` (RPC) when surpassing collection limits.
```ruby
Gitlab::Git::Diff::SIZE_LIMIT = 100.kilobytes
```
File diff will not be rendered if it's larger than 100 kilobytes.
#### Not expandable patches (too large)
*Note:* This limit is currently hardcoded and applied on Gitaly and the RPC returns `Diff.TooLarge` when this limit is surpassed.
Although we're still also applying it on GitLab, we should remove the redundancy from GitLab once we're confident with the Gitaly integration.
The patch not be rendered if it's larger than `ApplicationSettings#diff_max_patch_bytes`.
Users will see a `This source diff could not be displayed because it is too large` message.

NOTE: **Note:**
Merge requests and branch comparison views will be affected.
CAUTION: **Caution:**
These settings are currently under experimental state. They'll
increase the resource consumption of your instance and should
be edited mindfully.

### Maximum diff patch size
This is the content size each diff file (patch) is allowed to reach before
it's collapsed, without the possibility of being expanded. A link redirecting
to the blob view will be presented for the patches that surpass this limit.
Patches surpassing 10% of this content size will be automatically collapsed,
but expandable (a link to expand the diff will be presented).
