Too much output for build log filesize makes the build progress untraceable
Description
We switched from Jenkins to gitlab-ci and mainly build maven java ee projects. With a clean mvn build we quickly came to the point where the ci runner just said "Build log exceeded limit of 4194304 bytes.".
So this behaviour is document and can be tweaked, but it is undesireable. A FIFO-style log file would do the trick if the max filesize is exceeded.
