feat: add ability to set client max body size via nginx:set

This simplifies increasing upload size by making it a property, and is backwards compatible with installations that have set that in a custom file.

### Specifying a custom client_max_body_size
> New as of 0.23.0
Users can override the default `client_max_body_size` value - which limits file uploads - via `nginx:set`. Changing this value will only apply to every `server` stanza of the default `nginx.conf.sigil`; users of custom `nginx.conf.sigil` files must update their templates to support the new value.
```shell
dokku nginx:set node-js-app client-max-body-size 50m
```
The default value is empty string, which will result in nginx falling back to any configured, higher-level defaults (or `1m` if unconfigued. all numeric values _must_ have a trailing time value specified (`k` for kilobytes, `m` for megabytes).
The default value may be set by passing an empty value for the option:
```shell
dokku nginx:set node-js-app client-max-body-size
```
In all cases, the nginx config must be regenerated after setting the above value.
Changing this value when using the php buildpack (or any other buildpack that uses an intermediary server) will require changing the value in the server config shipped with that buildpack. Consult your buildpack documentation for further details.
### Showing the nginx config
For debugging purposes, it may be useful to show the nginx config. This can be achieved via the `nginx:show-config` command.
