vim-patch:9.1.1963: diff: missing diff size limit for xdiff (#36877)

Problem:  diff: missing diff size limit for xdiff
Solution: Impose file size limit for internal diff (xdiff)
          (Yee Cheng Chin).

Git imposes a hard cap on file size for content that it passes to xdiff
(added to Git in dcd1742e56e, defined in xdiff-interface.h), due to
integer overflow concerns in xdiff. Vim doesn't specify such a limit
right now, which means it's possible for a user to diff a large file
(1GB+) and trigger these overflow issues.

Add the same size limit (1GB minus 1MB) to Vim and simply throws an
error when Vim encounters files larger than said limit. For now, reuse
the same error message regarding internal diff failures. There is no
need to add the same limit for external diff as it's up to each tool to
error check their input to decide what is appropriate or not.
