Description
SnakeYaml introduced in version 1.32 a new property codePointLimit which is set to 3MB as default.
Now it is not possible to read spdx.yaml files which are larger than that limit.
The yamlFactory in the class MultiFormatStore has to be initialized with a bigger value.
The best would be do make this configurable from outside or during the initialization of the store.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the yamlFactory initialization in MultiFormatStore and how SnakeYaml 1.32 applies its codePointLimit. Confirm the failure with an spdx.yaml file larger than 3MB, then make the limit configurable during store initialization or from outside and verify that larger files can be read.
