passwd utility truncates passwords to 127 characters #146

passwd limits administrator passwords for OpenWRT to 127 characters. Passwords that are above this limit are automatically truncated, with no error or warning message passed back to the user.

TODO: Test when we port to Barrier Breaker to see if the problem persists
