This PR adds a new CircleCI step to display the size of the `docs/build/latest` directory after documentation is built. This will help monitor documentation build size and identify potential issues with documentation generation.

## Changes Made

- Added "Show docs build size" step in the `build_doc` job positioned between documentation build and sitemap comparison
- The step uses standard Unix tools (`du`, `find`, `sort`) to provide:
  - Total size of the `docs/build/latest` directory in human-readable format
  - Breakdown of the largest directories (top 10) for debugging
  - List of largest files over 1MB to help identify potential issues
- Includes error handling if the `docs/build/latest` directory doesn't exist

## Benefits

- **Better visibility** into documentation build output size
- **Easier debugging** of documentation build issues  
- **Monitoring** for unexpected size increases over time
- **Human-readable format** for easy interpretation by developers

## Example Output

```
=== Documentation build size ===
Total size of docs/build/latest directory:
42M     ./build/latest

Breakdown of largest directories:
42M     ./build/latest
15M     ./build/latest/api
8.2M    ./build/latest/static
3.1M    ./build/latest/docs

Largest files (>1MB):
5.2M    ./build/latest/static/js/main.bundle.js
2.8M    ./build/latest/static/css/styles.css
1.4M    ./build/latest/api/index.html
```

Fixes #16242.

Problem statement:
Add CircleCI step to show docs/build/latest directory size
## Description

Add a step in the CircleCI configuration (`.circleci/config.yml`) to display the size of the `docs/build/latest` directory. This will help monitor the documentation build size and identify potential issues with documentation generation.

## Proposed Changes

Add a new step in the appropriate CircleCI job that runs after the documentation is built to show:
- The total size of the `docs/build/latest` directory
- Optionally, a breakdown of the largest files/subdirectories

## Benefits

- Better visibility into documentation build output size
- Easier debugging of documentation build issues
- Monitoring for unexpected size increases

## Implementation Notes

The step should use standard Unix tools like `du` to calculate and display directory sizes in a human-readable format.

lets remove if statement

@author:
Removed the if statement as requested. The step now simply shows the total size without conditional checks. Commit a3c5e57.
