Remove restriction of 50 segments in document splitting feature of Discovery Service

Document splitting feature is very useful but currently it restricts to only 50 segments. We are dealing with huge documents so this restriction does not allow us to use this feature.

    This limit has been increased to 250, and may be able to increase further - let us know if 250 is still not enough

    Per Deepak's comments on https://ibm-watson.ideas.aha.io/ideas/WDS-I-136, our use cases require splits of up to 15000 segments in order to get to a document worth returning as an answer. These are very long PDF and Word documents - happy to provide examples.

    We have built a WEX custom pipeline to split documents into paragraphs. It does a pretty good job in splitting complex & large pdfs and docs. Would like to have similar or better capability in WDS for our client to move from WEX to WDS

    Drew/Deepak - can you please create a new Idea for "splitting on paragraphs" if that is the requirement?  That's a slightly different feature then splitting on section.
