This PR introduces a new Helm Improvement Proposal (HIP) to change Helm so that names and labels in templates are validated to be less than 63 characters in length before attempting to apply to Kubernetes, and discourage the current convention of truncating and trimming values.

I stand with this change request. At minimum, the bad practice of truncation must be removed from the default charts. This "fix" is prevalent in most open source charts and doesn't help at all with deployments. Failing fast is preferred to hiding an issue.
