Title:
  Data Validation description limited to 160 characters by UI

Status in DHIS 2:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  There is no consistency across DHIS2 with regard to the data type used
  for fields that typically contain (possibly relatively long)
  definitions and descriptions.

  For instance, a data validation NAME is specified as variable
  character(230) - which is excessive (the standard 160 characters make
  more sense) - whereas the data validation DESCRIPTION is specified as
  text (unlimited length, which makes sense). BUT THEN THE UI IS
  LIMITING THE DESCRIPTION TEXT TO 160 CHARACTERS, WHICH IS CLEARLY
  INADEQUATE.
