Updating file limit on AWS lightsail.md

I found many different versions of how to do this but this is the one that worked!

https://docs.bitnami.com/oci/apps/wordpress/administration/increase-upload-limit-php/

Modify The PHP File Upload Limit

Follow the steps below:

Modify the following options in the /opt/bitnami/php/etc/php.ini file to increase the allowed size for uploads:

Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.

post_max_size = 16M

Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.

upload_max_filesize = 16M

If the default Web server configuration limits are too low for the file sizes you plan to upload, you can also increase those limits in the /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/httpd.conf file, by setting the LimitRequestBody parameter to a new value in MB, as shown below:

LimitRequestBody 16384

Restart the servers for the changes to take effect.

sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart
