Resolves #8739
This PR introduces a limit on the length of the
description
field. Descriptions like https://crates.io/crates/docker-rust-api seem unreasonably long, so I've decided for an arbitrary limit of 1000 characters for now. As mentioned on the linked discussion, our frontend currently truncates the description to 200 characters in some places, so 1000 as a hard limit seem okay to me.
