Customizable label truncation and format for output (dotdiff) #304

The current version truncates the labels of nodes in the .dot output file (see code here). It would be helpful if this feature could be turned off or the length of the truncated label could be adjustable. In cases where the output must be further processed, a full label might be preferred.

Formatting the labels in a way that the original information can be easily parsed and retrieved is also desirable.

Hi @mahtab-nejati !

It would sure be a nice enhancement. I will try to see if I can find the time to implement this.

Cheers!
