Description

Currently, the Split Button only supports the Small size style, as noted in the [doc](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/blob/master/docs/components/SplitButton.md). I attempted to modify the size using `app:materialSizeOverlay,` but it does not seem to have any effect.

Please add support for additional sizes (e.g., Medium, Large) to remain consistent with other Material components.

Research direction

Start with the SplitButton documentation linked in the issue, then locate the SplitButton implementation and compare how other Material components handle size variants. Verify how materialSizeOverlay is applied and define the supported Medium and Large behavior. Done means additional sizes work consistently with other components and are documented.
