As of today, we have no information about changing sizes for creatures.

For that matter, we don't really know what size does for the halfling...hmm...

It doesn't change a creature's abilities, except things that depend on how much space the creature takes up (squeezing works differently, for example).

What about weapons? If I want the Fire Giant to "drop" a +2 Flaming Maul, do the players get to use it without problems? What if it was a (huge) Fire Titan?

If that works, then why are halflings restricted on the type of weapons they can use?

Folks who've seen the PHB tell us that the Enchant Item ritual allows you to resize magic gear.

The design notion, iirc, for 4e, was to get away from that sort of modification... well ability scores anyway.
