It would be useful to expose the increased packet size through the library, to allow users of the ESP-Now library to leverage the functionality of sending large packets.
Based on the documentation, it looks like ESP-NOW v1.0 vs v2.0 is merely a function of ESP-IDF versions. ie. older versions of ESP-IDF support version 1 packet size and newer versions of ESP-IDF support version 2 packet size, with no change in API and no hardware dependency (as in, one doesn't need to run a specific board to benefit from the ESP-NOW v2.0)? If that is the case, then it should be safe to simply replace references to ESP_NOW_MAX_DATA_LEN with ESP_NOW_MAX_DATA_LEN_V2 in these files.

Is your feature request related to a problem?
As per the ESP-NOW User Guide and Programming guide, ESP-NOW supports Version v2.0 with an increased maximum packet length.
However, the current Arduino ESP-NOW library still truncates the packet at 250 bytes - ref. https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/blob/master/libraries/ESP_NOW/src/ESP32_NOW.cpp#L389-L391 and other places in that file.

in these files.I've tested this with the fork at https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/compare/master...carstenkoester:arduino-esp32:espnow-v2-packet-size?expand=1 and at least in a basic test, was able to to transmit a 1000-byte ESP-NOW packet from an ESP32S3 dev board to an (older) Adafruit Huzzah32, with the change required on the transmitter side only. I haven't been able to test other variations eg. ESP_NOW_Serial though.
