feat: expose Live message size limit to frontend (#100169)

Developers using Grafana Live need to know whether a message is too
big to be sent over the Grafana Live websocket. Since this limit
is configurable, it is useful to expose it to the frontend.

This commit adds a new field to the frontend settings,
`liveMessageSizeLimit`, which the frontend can use to access the
limit configured in the backend.

Relates to #99770.
