[adminchannel] Topic mask has an undocumented/unintentional limit in number of characters

[johnlage]

When i try to set a admittedly large topic mask, it gives me an error. The following is what i was trying to use as the mask at the time.

@tmask Current Topic: %s || Music: http://pastebin.com/wuL057E2 || Do not ping Kris if he's not on IRC. || Watch out for the poofing doctor || Halloween is coming! || We don't want a 卐 in here. || Woop, woop! Espernet got 4 new servers \o/
<Andromeda> sqlite3.OperationalError: near "s": syntax error (file "/var/lib/openshift/5425c25450044662d0000b79/app-root/runtime/repo/willie/willie/db.py", line 610, in update)

I think from what i gathered on IRC that this is unintentional.

Thanks,

John Lage

The problem in Willie was not related to length, and is fixed. This mask will still have length issues (which should end up being handled by just truncating it), but that issue exists for all of IRC, and is well documented by the standard.
