Public bug reported:

Input for data elements that have type = string, are not validating the
length on input. This messes up the offline support, since the system
will store values that are not allowed to upload in the client. It means
that the client will _never_ be able to upload his data values.

Fix should do two things:

1) Make sure that length is validated (<=255)
2) Make sure that old values that are too long, are sliced so that upload will work for users
