Implements send_large_photos_as_documents parameter to handle photos
exceeding Telegram's limits (10MB file size or 10000px dimension sum).
Features:
- Automatic detection of oversized photos using file size and PIL-based
dimension checking
- Two handling modes:
* send_large_photos_as_documents=false (default): Intelligently
downsizes photos using Lanczos resampling and progressive JPEG
quality reduction to fit within Telegram limits
* send_large_photos_as_documents=true: Sends oversized photos as
documents to preserve original quality
- For media groups: separates oversized photos and sends them as
documents after the main group, or downsizes them inline
- Maintains backward compatibility with existing max_asset_data_size
parameter for hard size limits
This resolves PHOTO_INVALID_DIMENSIONS errors for large images like
26MP photos while giving users control over quality vs. file size.

Introduces optional max_asset_data_size parameter (in bytes) to filter
out oversized photos and videos from Telegram notifications. Assets
exceeding the limit are skipped with a warning, preventing
PHOTO_INVALID_DIMENSIONS errors for large images (e.g., 26MP photos).
Changes:
- Add max_asset_data_size parameter to service signature
- Implement size checking for single photos/videos
- Filter oversized assets in media groups
- Update services.yaml, translations, and documentation

- Add `wait_for_response` parameter (default: true) for fire-and-forget operation
- Change supports_response to OPTIONAL to allow both modes
- Refactor execution logic into `_execute_telegram_notification` method
- Background tasks created with `hass.async_create_task` when wait_for_response=false
- Update documentation with non-blocking mode example and response behavior

Renamed send_telegram_media_group to send_telegram_notification with expanded capabilities:
- Text messages (when urls is empty)
- Single photo/video (uses sendPhoto/sendVideo APIs)
- Media groups (uses sendMediaGroup API)
- Automatic chunking for unlimited media URLs
- Smart optimization: single-item chunks use appropriate single-item APIs
New parameters:
- max_group_size (2-10, default 10): control items per media group
- chunk_delay (0-60000ms, default 0): delay between chunks for rate limiting
- disable_web_page_preview: disable link previews in text messages
The service now intelligently selects the most efficient Telegram API endpoint based on content type and chunk size, with comprehensive error handling and logging.
