[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Make ellipsization configurable (#2112)

[Enrico Tröger]

In certain places (window title, some dialog titles, tab bar, ...) we shorten the document name to 30 or sometimes 100 characters by removing characters in the middle of the document name and replace it by "…".

This was initially introduced by a request in https://sourceforge.net/p/geany/bugs/298/.

On the mailing list (https://lists.geany.org/users/2019-March/010970.html), it was requested to disable this feature.

One possible implementation could add two new "Various preferences" to make the currently used constants (30 and 100) configurable, with `0` as disabling the feature and add some documentation for these settings.
