Quick Pick imprecise filtering breaks after 60 characters

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

• VS Code Version: 1.91.0-Insiders, 1.90.2
• OS Version: Windows 11, Ubuntu 18 (in WSL)

The filtering for quick pick items which lets you skip characters or words seems to not work on longer strings. Filtering does not work after the 60th character in the string (it seems).

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a quick pick menu with these options:

await vscode.window.showQuickPick([
	"Alpha Bravo Charlie Delta Echo Foxtrot Golf Hotel India Juliett Kilo Lima Mike November Oscar Papa Quebec Romeo Sierra Tango Uniform Victor Whiskey X-ray Yankee Zulu",
	"alpha bravo charlie delta echo foxtrot golf hotel india juliett kilo lima mike november oscar papa quebec romeo sierra tango uniform victor whiskey x-ray yankee zulu"
], {
	canPickMany: false,
	title: "Example",
});

2. In the search bar, type: "Alpha Juli". Both options will remain unfiltered and the strings "Alpha" and "Juli" will be highlighted separately:

3. Type "e". Both options now get filtered:

4. All imprecise searching seems to break after the 60th character (which is the 'e' in 'Juliett'):

This is because of this line:

vscode/src/vs/base/common/filters.ts

Lines 283 to 286 in bc67f5a

	// TODO: Consider removing this check
	if (camelCaseWord.length > 60) {
	camelCaseWord = camelCaseWord.substring(0, 60);
	}

Which is cut off likely for performance reasons. Maybe it's worth bumping to a larger number.
