Hook checking path and filenames

[AFulgens]

Context

Although in recent version of Windows 10 and on Windsows 11 the path length maximum 255 has been disabled, the old NTFS API still only supports that length, and thus many tools still don't come right with longer paths.

Apart from that, it's just nice not to have too long path names and not too long filenames (even if you are working on a Java project).

Note that a similar thing was discussed in https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks/issues/760 but it has been rejected there.

Idea

Create a pre-commit hook, which checks:

• absolute path length (by default should not be longer than 255 characters)
• filename length (by default, without optional extension, should not be longer than 32 characters)

Both should be configurable via arguments.
