Better safeguarding for grouping requests over many unique values #18645

Grouping over a large result set with many unique values might cause out of memory situations on both stateless and content layer. I think we should do a better job at safeguarding and fail queries early.

This is solved on Vespa 8 where we require that max is specified. If not the default of 10 is use.
