PasswordHash: hammered out more of password truncation policy.
PasswordHash
-------------
* .truncate_size now used to indicate general "max password size";
* .truncate_error now defined for all hashers, indicates .hash() policy
* added .truncate_verify_reject as companion, indicates corresponding .verify() policy.
HandlerTestCase
---------------
* expanded test functions to check all combinations of truncation policy flags
* fixed fuzzer so it doesn't generate passwords which would throw PasswordSizeError.
