Remove unenforced size limit on room names (#3669)

Browse source 
Fixes #3641

The spec says the name field in m.room.name events must not exceed 255 bytes but no servers actually enforce this over the C-S API. Clients should probably already be truncating room names to an appropriate length for their user interface.
