Cannot download over 4GiB LFS files form the UI

Summary

Select a large LFS file over 4 GB on the UI. A banner on the top of the page appears.

An error occurred while loading the file. Please try again.

No file preview or download link is displayed, so users cannot download the file.

This used to work on older versions of Gitlab. It appears to be a new issue in version 15.

Steps to reproduce

Upload a LFS file bigger than 4 GB and then try to download it with the UI. This is on a self hosted omni-bus setup. Same problem with Firefox and Chrome.

Example Project

What is the current bug behavior?

"An error occurred while loading the file. Please try again." is displayed on a banner. The loading circle spins constantly in the page body, but never loads anything. The download link does not appear.

It is still possible to download the file by replacing "/blob/" with "/raw/" in the browser URL bar.

What is the expected correct behavior?

I expect to see "Download (1.58 GiB)" or similar message in the center of the screen. Selecting the link downloads the file, just like it used to.
