Tweak the default PHP config

[benface]

I believe the default values for some of the php.ini options should be changed to match most Craft CMS dev workflows:

• display_errors should be set to On, which is the recommended value for development as per the comments in php.ini.
• display_startup_errors should also be set to On.
• max_input_vars should be set to 2000 or even 5000, as 1000 is often too low when saving entries with lots of matrix fields (or the settings for such matrix fields).
• post_max_size (default value: 8M), upload_max_filesize (default value: 2M), max_file_uploads (default value: 20) could all be at least doubled IMO (I personally set them much higher but I understand that too high is not good either). 2M for upload_max_filesize in particular is really low.

These all seem like reasonable defaults IMO, I probably would have asked for much higher limits. 😄

I especially agree with max_input_vars = 5000, and the highest possible memory limits.

+1 for increasing upload defaults.
I tend to use values in the range of 16M-64M to allow for image uploads that can support various transformations. A retina resolution (2x) full-width image for a desktop breakpoint can easily exceed 3200px width. Which makes for some chunky master image sizes.

We just released 1.1.0 that adds display_errors to iniset and also enables display_errors on start up. I think we only need to add display_startup_errors to resolve this ticket, which we can do post 1.1.0,

Yeah, +1, the upload_max_filesize is extremely low.

The defaults have been improved in v2 and there is a new nitro iniset command to tweak settings on a per site basis. Please see the documentation for further details - https://craftcms.com/docs/nitro/2.x/php-settings.html
