Redmine issue names have a maximum length of 255 characters. When we prepend, e.g., "nautilus: " to a very long issue name, we can end up with a string that is over 255 characters long. Such a string will be refused by Redmine: ValidationError: Subject is too long (maximum is 255 characters) This patch avoids such an eventuality by truncating the post-prepend string to 255 characters.
