Huge hook output no longer floods error messages

A hook that dumps huge output now gives you a readable error instead of a wall of text.

What

Oversized hook output and error stacks are now cut down the middle with a marker saying how many characters were removed, so a hook that dumps a large stdout produces a readable failure instead of a wall of text.

Details
  • The count in the marker accounts for characters already elided by nested markers, so it stays accurate.
  • Errors are formatted as name and message plus at most five stack frames, each clipped to a line length.
  • Applied to worktree-create hook failure output.
Evidence

characters truncated

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
