Increase (or disable) $wgUploadSizeWarning for Commons

Description

Author: brianna.laugher

Description:
I would prefer the 'large-file' warning to be disabled completely for Commons, because we encourage people to upload files at the largest appropriate size. If they upload a "large" file, it's on purpose, not by accident.

However if this is seen as unacceptable, at least, please increase it, maybe to 10485760B (10MB).

But really, it would be better to disable it.

Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement

and hey, while we're here, [[bugzilla:12595]] Increase Commons file size upload limit to 40MB would be nice, too :)

It's been obsolete since the introduction of server-side image scaling. I'm disabling it in DefaultSettings.php.
