Description

In #4656 / #4881, pagination for the file table has been added.

Now I noticed when uploading a ZIP file with 3,000 files (enabled that via setting) that the browser tab crashes because the file table in edit view is getting way too big.

Can we please add pagination support for this, too? As always, happy to contribute.

Pinging @TaniaSchlatter as this is UI related, @mheppler and @pdurbin because they wrote the pagination bits for the dataset view.

Research direction

Start with the pagination implementation referenced in issues #4656 and #4881, then locate the file table used by the edit view. Reproduce the large-ZIP case with roughly 3,000 files and compare its behavior with the paginated dataset view; done means the edit view paginates the files without crashing the browser.
