Hmm. This is interesting, still it could be confusing as
ERRCODE_NAME_TOO_LONG is used only for names, when they are longer
than NAMEDATALEN, so in context that's a bit different than a longer
file name.

How about using a new error code in class 58, say a
ERRCODE_FILE_NAME_TOO_LONG like in the attached?
ERRCODE_DUPLICATE_FILE is like that; it exists just for the mapping
with EEXIST.
