Stéphane Tailland 86d56dc4ea Make the request body buffer a per-domain setting
ai-proxy's log_payloads and log_statistics produced nothing on the AI
gateway despite being enabled. The cause was not the plugin's own
max_request_body_size but nginx's client_body_buffer_size, left at its 8k
default: past it the body goes to a temp file, and
kong.request.get_raw_body() returns nil for a body on disk, so any plugin
reading the body silently stops working. Prompts on that gateway run to 30
KB. Measured, not guessed — request.size was 30369 on the last call.

Expose it as ${CLIENT_BODY_BUFFER_SIZE} with the 8k default every domain
keeps, rather than raising it globally. The buffer is allocated per
connection carrying a body, so a value that is free on a gateway seeing 18
requests a day is not free on one serving real traffic.

# Cluster-wide defaults for the dataplane-template ${VAR}s. NOT part of
# dataplane-template/ itself (that folder is what gets built+applied once
# per domain into its own namespace — this ConfigMap is applied once,
# cluster-wide, in flux-system). Each domain's Kustomization lists this
# FIRST in postBuild.substituteFrom, then its own ConfigMap/Secret after —
# Flux applies "last wins" precedence across substituteFrom entries, so a
# domain can still override any of these if it ever needs to.
