Follow up with a specification in the docs on #61974

Problem to solve

Document when and why the limitation on https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/61974 was introduced

Further details

As part of fixing https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/61974 we introduced a limit on issuable description ad notes size. That also affects API. Because the security issue gets disclosed 30 days after it is being deployed to production(I hope I am not wrong on the timeline). Referring to the issue when the limitation was introduced and why should be postponed.

Proposal

Schedule this follow up issue to update documentation on when and why the limitation on https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/61974 was introduced.
