Revert "Don't truncate database and user names in startup packets."

This reverts commit 562bee0fc13dc95710b8db6a48edad2f3d052f2e.

We received a report from the field about this change in behavior,
so it seems best to revert this commit and to add proper
multibyte-aware truncation as a follow-up exercise.

Fixes bug #18711.
