Study, series, and SOP instance UIDs were used to generate path for data sets copied into the DICOM database. When database folder path or UIDs were long, this path length could very easily become longer than the file system maximum path limit (about 256 characters on some systems, for example on Windows or when writing CDs). Added useShortStoragePath flag so that developers can still switch between full and shortened paths.
