Remove padding in web push notifications

Alex requested to merge 1213-prevent-webpush-padding into master

Closes #1213 (closed)

What does this MR do?

Disables automatic padding in web push messages. The padding is likely the reason for "Payload too large" errors.

See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65018704/mozilla-push-service-413-request-entity-too-large and https://github.com/web-push-libs/web-push-php/issues/108

I'm not really sure if this fixes it, because it is difficult to reproduce the error in docker, but it is worth a try.

How confident are you it won't break things if deployed?

Not very sure. It doesn't seem break anything in docker.

How to test

  1. Checkout branch locally
  2. Login as foodsaver
  3. Enable push notifications on the dashboard
  4. Login as someone else in a private tab
  5. Send a message to the first user
  6. See that the push notification arrives
