Designer: Artboard title character limit bug when double clicking artboard name

[MC1]

This only affects Windows not Mac (tested).

Behaviour and how to reproduce: When renaming an artboard by double-clicking the artboard name on the pasteboard, there is a character limit of 50 characters. This limit is not present when renaming via the layer panel.

This results in two undesired issues:

1. When the character limit is reached, no further characters can be entered.
2. If an existing artboard with a title longer than 50 characters is edited by double clicking, everything after the 50th character will be lost.

This can easily be worked around by renaming using the layer panel, although it is not as intuitive or as fast a workflow in some situations.

The simplest way to test is pasting "1234567890" repeatedly.
