Details:
Length of new account creation address is 15 bytes. That's just what IPv4
address would take at max, but it's not enough for max length IPv6 address.
I think it's always the numerical IP that ends here, but for consistency with
all other address handling (including the server side string from which
database entry is written from) length of this string should be 255.
Attached fix changes setup_auth_server.sh to create it with length 256 and
updates database documentation. I don't think having any tool to update
existing databases is priority issue - this account creation IP is just
stored, never used by freeciv.
