affs: add mount option to avoid filename truncates

Browse source 
Normal behavior for filenames exceeding specific filesystem limits is to
refuse operation.

AFFS standard name length being only 30 characters against 255 for usual
Linux filesystems, original implementation does filename truncate by
default with a define value AFFS_NO_TRUNCATE which can be enabled but
needs module compilation.

This patch adds 'nofilenametruncate' mount option so that user can
easily activate that feature and avoid a lot of problems (eg overwrite
files ...)

Filenames are truncated to 30 characters without warning (this
can be changed by setting the compile-time option AFFS_NO_TRUNCATE
in include/linux/amigaffs.h).
By default, filenames are truncated to 30 characters without warning.
'nofilenametruncate' mount option can change that behavior.
Case is ignored by the affs in filename matching, but Linux shells
do care about the case. Example (with /wb being an affs mounted fs):
