add a max file size for searcher

Warren Gifford requested to merge backend-dry-run/cc/searcher-max-file-size into main

Created by: camdencheek

This adds a max file size to searcher to more closely match the behavior of Zoekt. It is not configurable, and does not respect the large files override, but it fixes some of the memory and file size issues we were hitting with larger searcher searches.

Followup task to expose the same options as zoekt at #23841
