[Bug]-[210]:Issue with video uploads to S3 with files greater than 5MB

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

When uploading multiples files to S3, the query fails for video files that are above 5MB with the error message

File content is not base64 encoded. File content needs to be base64 encoded when the 'File Data Type: Base64/Text' field is selected 'Yes'.

Any images uploaded work fine. Video uploads work fine if file is less than 5MB, i have set the file size to 25MB still the video doesn't upload. Fails even if one video is selected

Steps To Reproduce

Set the file picker options to the following

• Max files - 5
• Max file size - 25
• Allowed types - 2 (Image/video)
• Data format - Base64

set S3 upload query options to

• Commands: Create multiple new files
• File data type - Base64
• Content - {{ file_picker.files }}

Select any video to upload (greater than 5 MB) - Sample Videos
Video will fail to upload and will give error

File content is not base64 encoded. File content needs to be base64 encoded when the 'File Data Type: Base64/Text' field is selected 'Yes'.

@Imtinan1996 on our cloud version there is a 5mb limit on processing files. If you are selfhosting, you can increase this limit by setting APPSMITH_CODEC_SIZE=100 on the self-hosted instance

Seems like there is a frontend problem here, in execute request frontend doesn't send the content of a large file.
