Use last 64 characters for significant bits, as our use-case is paths, and
they're more specific as they get longer...

Rather than truncating, I'd prefer to simply throw. devcert is designed to be a low-level library, and I don't think we necessarily want to assume that a name longer than 64 characters should simply be truncated. If the consuming library / framework / tool wants to truncate, it can do that.

I appreciate the issue and PR though! Wasn't aware of that restriction in OpenSSL. A PR for throwing would be more than welcome!
