Fixes issue identified in https://github.com/gicait/geoserver-rest/issues/147

I only ever tested in a Linux environment where the path length for a file is effectively unlimited, but it will fail in a Windows environment due to a length limit of 254 characters.

Thanks @iboates for submitting this PR. Since this is just a very minor change, I am accepting this without testing.
