Limit "x new plugins are available" screen message length #231

Closed rikkolovescats closed 2 months ago

Sometimes there are a lot of plugins that get added here in plugin manager repo (such as 20+ plugins(!) in #228).

When this happens, there's a looong screen message that gets shown in-game that displays the count of new plugins as well as the names of every new plugin that are available to download. To fit this entire screenmessage at once, the game makes the font size very tiny which is nowhere readable.

To improve such cases, we can maybe limit the names of the newly available plugins to 2 and suffix it with something like ", and more!", or ", etc.", or whatever feels right.

Here's the line that fires off this screenmessage:
