1624 index large files

Warren Gifford requested to merge 1624-index-large-files into master

Created by: ijsnow

This PR is part of the solution for #1624 (closed). We are adding a configuration option called "search.largeFiles" which is a list of glob patterns. Any files matching the patterns in the list will be indexed and searched regardless of the size.

This PR:

  • adds the setting
  • adds an internal endpoint that serves this setting for zoekt to consume
  • uses the setting in searcher

Test plan:

Testing searcher implementation:

  • Run sourcegraph
  • Make sure basic text search is ran by disabling indexing "search.index.enabled": false,
  • Add a large file to a repo. (e.g. ijsnow/tmp)
  • Make sure we don't search it
  • Add "search.largeFiles": ["bigfile.txt"] to config
  • Make sure it is in search results
