Ticket 2135: trim overlong repeats with ellipsis rather than failing.

In web interface and retweet/repeat API we show the original untrimmed text, but some back-compat API messages will still show the trimmed 'RT' version.
This matches Twitter's behavior on overlong retweets, though we're outputting the RT version in more API results than they do.
