[LOG4J2-2509] Allow a JDBC Appender to truncate strings to match a
table's metadata column length limit. Not documenting truncateStrings
for now since it might make sense to always have it on.

>
> Allow a JDBC Appender to truncate strings to match a table's metadata column 
> length limit.
> Some databases like MySQL can be configured to cause SQL INSERT statements to 
> fail when data for a column exceeds the length of a column definition.
> In the case of MySQL 8, this is the default configuration, and asking a DB 
> admin to change this to accommodate an application is not reasonable.
> This feature would add a new attribute on the {{JdbcAppender}} called 
> {{truncateStrings}} which would do so. This would be set to true by default 
> for a smooth initial impression.
