… wide column list in view

… of 100000 exceeded" on wide datasets (Backport) (#7940)

## Rationale
Backport changes to 26.7 for
LabKey/internal-issues#1219

On wide grids (many columns), setting a summary statistic posts the full
custom-view JSON to the saveQueryViews action, which is capped at
`@JsonInputLimit(100_000)` characters. The per-column field metadata
array (fields) plus full column objects blow past that limit and the
save fails ("Character read limit of 100000 exceeded"). The fix trims
the POST body in `_updateSessionCustomView`: drop the unused top-level
fields array and reduce each column to just fieldKey (+ title when
present).

## Changes

'fields' info in post
