# validate_string converts a given string to one that conforms to
# PBot's limitations for internal strings. This means ensuring the
# string is not too long, does not have undesired characters, etc.
#
# If the given string contains a JSON structure, it will be parsed
# and each value will be validated. JSON structures must have a depth
# of one level only.
#
# Note that $max_length represents bytes, not characters. The string
# is encoded to utf8, validated, and then decoded back. Truncation
# uses Unicode::Truncate to find the longest Unicode string that can
# fit within $max_length bytes without corruption of the characters.
#
# if $max_length is undefined, it defaults to 8k.
#
# if $max_length is 0, no truncation occurs.
