src: rename ERR_STRING_TOO_LARGE to ERR_STRING_TOO_LONG

The old error name and message were trying to be consistent with
ERR_BUFFER_TOO_LARGE but they were not really accurate.
The kStringMaxLength was measured in number of characters,
not number of bytes. The name ERR_STRING_TOO_LARGE also
seems a bit awkward. This patch tries to correct them before
they get released to users.
