[Typo3-dev] tt_content: CType varchar(30)

You can register extension keys of 30 characters but they will not work.

I created a new content element with an extension key a little less then 
30 characters but the system insists on postfixing the extension key 
with the plugin id/# (pi1)

Example:

Extension key: some_long_extension_key_name (28 characters)

When adding the content element to a page in the select box is:

some_long_extension_key_name_pi1 (32 characters)

Once this is saved in the tt_content table with the Ctype field of 
varchar(30) will truncate the Ctype selection value.

My quick fix was to enlarge the field size to varchar(40).
