master 1f7113e6898 3/3: Shorten docstrings generated by cl-defstruct

[Stefan Kangas]

branch: master
commit 1f7113e68988fa0bcbdeca5ae364cba8d6db3637
Author: Damien Cassou <damien@cassou.me>
Commit: Stefan Kangas <stefankangas@gmail.com>

    Shorten docstrings generated by cl-defstruct
    
    * lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct): Split the first line of
    generated docstrings if either the struct name or a field name is very
    long.  This reduces the likelihood of "docstring wider than 80
    characters" errors.  (Bug#65790)
