Thanks.  It makes sense to reduce the default value of yank-menu-max-items
because long menus are hard to navigate, but OTOH indeed maybe better
to leave it at the previous max number.

The previous docstring was unclear, but the new docstring
doesn't make it clearer.  I don't have a concrete suggestion,
but it needs to say that this length truncates the text
of each menu item.
