BLOB max increase to 1GB #82

Description

Currently, the BLOB cannot be more than 200 MB

const MAX_BLOB_LENGTH = 200 * 1000 * 1000 // 200 MB
. As stated in #18 there is a sanity cap of 200 MB. Browsers now allow much larger BLOBs around 900 MB with no issue.

Since using a larger BLOB does not cause any errors or warnings, and the only reason for the 200 MB limit is because of a bothered UX from waiting, I recommend the max size increase to 1 GB.

This issue arose while using Webtorrent to fetch a 500 MB .webm file. However, it does work on instant.io so maybe there's a difference in code there.
