The previous 1 MiB default was too restrictive for spans in the spans_v2 pipeline, causing legitimate large spans to be rejected with HTTP 413. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Increases the default
max_span_sizein relay config from 1 MiB to 10 MiB.With the new DACI new limit per span is 1MB (this will be changed in sentry codebase to still come as a config), but that means that we now need to raise
max_span_sizeto higher value.max_span_sizeis used to check if the span will even get to trimming or will immediately get rejected, so if we left it at 1 MiB we'd never trim any larger span the limit, which is not the behavior that we want.The change is done here, in the code, and not through config to address also the managed relays which do not read our k8s configs.
