Support long filename
rdiff-backup has a features to support long file name when the filename size is too long to be created on the filesystem. When this happend the file is created in a subdirectory with a sequence number. Rdiffweb is not supporting this feature.
Instead of listing files and directory from the filesystem, we may scan the repository metadata. But this might cause performance issue when browsing. So we may need to write a diatomic search function to lookup the data. Another alternative is to build a metadata cache with an index.
