Catch Field Length Violations When You Save a Flow

Flow Builder now warns at save time when an Assignment element sets a record field to a fixed text value longer than the field's maximum length, naming the field and value so you can fix it before a run-time failure. The check covers only Assignment elements with fixed text values, not variable references.
