fix: handle MergeKeyNode explicitly in depth check, add size limit to ParsePersonaBytes
- Add explicit case for *ast.MergeKeyNode in checkYAMLDepth switch to
  make it clear this is an intentional leaf (no children to recurse)
  rather than relying on the default case. Prevents future library
  changes from silently bypassing depth checks.

- Add MaxPersonaFileSize bound check at the top of ParsePersonaBytes.
  While callers already check size, the public API should defend itself
  (defense in depth) against arbitrarily large inputs that could cause
  excessive memory/CPU before AST validation runs.

- Add tests for both behaviors.

Addresses review #2879 findings.
