Merging to release-4-lts: TT-8942 Change default RPC pool size (#5030)

TT-8942 Change default RPC pool size (#5030)

<!-- Provide a general summary of your changes in the Title above -->

## Description
Default RPC pool size is set to 20 and because of the relatively heavy
CPU and Memory footprint of the RPC connections in the MDCB model this
can cause issues where either the gateways or MDCB fail on load cause by
scaling events or component failure at MDCB side.
