Delete Branch "longer-final-thesis-titles"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
The titles entered are most often the same as the project title. The project title however has no length limit. When such a project tries to upload their final thesis the system will crash because the accepted long project title is rejected as the final thesis title.
This change removes the length limit on final thesis titles to bring them to parity with the project title.

This change has already been done manually in the production system to resolve the above ticket.
How to test
Submit a final thesis using a title longer than 255 characters and see that is accepted.

I'm guessing we will never have titles that exceed the default maximum packet size.
Depending on the version the defaults could be 4MB or 16MB (That would make for some really long titles)
