Unhandled error 'Request Entity Too Large'

#422 adds the ability to set a file size limit but the exception thrown is not handled properly.

Upload is stopped but the page rendered shows like this: Server error: Error: Request Entity Too Large at Object.exports.error It would be better if this is handled by req.flash error

I appear to have fixed the issue I was having. I tried two solutions, and I’m not sure which one was the one that did it.

First, I use nginx to route https stuff on the server. I found this Stack Overflow thread that inspired me to add the following line to server block:

client_max_body_size 50M; #all file uploads up to 50 MB

I restarted nginx, but I was still getting the error. However, I didn’t reboot the server or restart keystone.js.

The second thing I tried was to add this line to keystone.init() in keystone.js:

'file limit': '50MB'

I had no idea if this was the right syntax or not. But when I restarted keystone.js, it ran and didn’t complain. I rebooted the server and when it came up I stopped getting the entity.to.large error.

Hopefully this helps someone in the future if they come across this issue.
