[aur-dev] [PATCH v2 4/8] Print error message when maximum DB character length is exceeded

Packages can currently be submitted with variables longer than the maximum
allowed by the DB for that specific field. The string will be shortened
without informing the user. This can result in unexpected oddities on
submitted packages. Print error messages informing the user when the package
name, URL, description, license, or version is too long.

Also move the resolution of full package version (including epoch) to an
earlier point in pkgsubmit.php
