Extend /help/instance_configuration with size limits

What does this MR do?

On the {base_url}/help/instance_configuration help page, you can find information about the settings used in your current instance. This MR extends the content of this page with the following size limits:

  • Maximum attachment size
  • Maximum push size (optional setting, show '-' if not set)
  • Maximum import size (show '-' if set to 0 (unlimited))
  • Maximum diff patch size
  • Maximum job artifact size
  • Maximum page size (show '-' if set to 0 (unlimited))
  • Maximum snippet size

In addition, the GitLab CI chapter is removed. That chapter previously contained only the Maximum job artifact size setting, which is now also listed in the Size Limits chapter.
