#2129: the validate() method shouldn't ignore maxlength

The validate() method of a model does not complain when exceeding the
maxlength of a CharField.
There should be an error in the returned dictionary (e.g. "Ensure your
text is less than 75 characters.")
In the following example someone could add an invalid e-mail-address
without getting a validation error:
{{{
>>> import django.contrib.auth.models as auth
>>> u = auth.User.objects.get(pk=1)
>>> u.email =
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
>>> u.validate()
{}
>>> u.save()
/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/django/db/backends/mysql/base.py:35:
Warning: Rows matched: 1 Changed: 1 Warnings: 1
return self.cursor.execute(sql, params)
>>> u.validate()
{}
>>> u = auth.User.objects.get(pk=1)
>>> u.email
'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
>>> u.validate()
{'email': ['Enter a valid e-mail address.']}
>>>
}}}
