Increase default `max_chunk_size` to `1 GB`

[devnoname120]

Why is max_chunk_size set to 10 MB by default? That's pretty low.

What would you think about upping it to something like 1 GB?

Code reference:

server/apps/files/lib/App.php

Line 57 in 0447b53

$maxChunkSize = (int)\OC::$server->getConfig()->getAppValue('files', 'max_chunk_size', 10 * 1024 * 1024);

The weird thing is that the VM install script overrides this to 100 MB. Why is it different from the default?

Cloud-hosted NextCloud often provide the option modify the value, and they just keep the default.

Why can't we change the default?

@szaimen Any ideas if there is a way to fetch max_chunk_size from the API? I'm adding support for chunked upload in rclone.org and I'd like to programmatically determine the optimal chunk size (unless overriden by the user).
