patchability of UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE

[MuPp3t33r]

Hi all, so sorry if I've logged this to the wrong place, or I'm being an idiot and there is a way to do this that I'm completely missing

In frontend-app-authoring/src/constants.js#L55 we have a constant "UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE = 20 * 1024 * 1024"

Insofar as I've found, there's no way to easily override this value without forking the repo and manually editing this value.
This breaks compatibility of the legacy patch (without MFE)

Is it possible that a patch can be implemented for the override of this value?
Or, perhaps a viable patch option would be to read the value of MAX_ASSET_UPLOAD_FILE_SIZE_IN_MB stored in "cms/envs/tutor/production.py" (already patchable via via the legacy openedx-cms-production-settings) to keep the contentstore.new_studio_mfe.use_new_files_uploads_page consistent with the old patch.

Here is a link to a discussion I opened and my findings
https://discuss.openedx.org/t/correctly-patch-max-asset-upload-file-size-in-mb/14572/5

There was another user who asked an equivalent question here, which I linked back to my above post:
https://discuss.openedx.org/t/max-asset-upload-file-size-in-mb-in-sumac-version/14930

Thanks for your consideration :)

Makes sense to me that this should be configurable, either via environment variable or fetching the limit from the backend.
