Model name length is not enforced or validated

[Michal Dabski]

When creating a model with name longer than 100 characters, migrate will fail with the following trace:

django.db.utils.DataError: value too long for type character varying(100)

saving sqlmigrate to a file and executing it will work fine, which makes it harder to determine what the issue is - the schema migration does not have any inserts.
I found that the issue was caused by model name length not fitting into ContentType's 100 character limit.

I suggest any of the following
# Validate model names in ContentType model and raise a validation error so it's more clear to the user what is causing it
# Enforce model name length limit
# Truncate model name in ContentType objects down to 100 characters
