Give users more control over URL shortening

Users and administrators can set how long an URL can be before it's
shortened, and how long a notice can be before all its URLs are
shortened. They can also turn off shortening altogether.

+maxlength: If an URL is strictly longer than this limit, it will be
+           shortened. Note that the URL shortener service may return an

+           URLs in the notice will be shortened. Users can override.
