setup: sanity check file size in read_gitfile_gently

read_gitfile_gently will allocate a buffer to fit the entire file that
should be read. Add a sanity check of the file size before opening to
avoid allocating a potentially huge amount of memory if we come across
a large file that someone happened to name ".git". The limit is set to
a sufficiently unreasonable size that should never be exceeded by a
genuine .git file.
