Gerrit 98737 limits topic titles to 260 bytes.

We have languages that have 3 bytes per character. That means these languages
can have topics up to ~86 characters long, where most Western European
languages will be able to have topics up to 260 characters long. That's a big
difference in functional specification, just because the specification uses a
unit of measure that users have little understanding of.
