One point I did not make earlier is that the tranche name lengths will
need to be as long as we allow in dsm_registry.c.

```
#define DSMR_NAME_LEN 128

#define DSMR_DSA_TRANCHE_SUFFIX " DSA"
#define DSMR_DSA_TRANCHE_SUFFIX_LEN (sizeof(DSMR_DSA_TRANCHE_SUFFIX) - 1)
#define DSMR_DSA_TRANCHE_NAME_LEN (DSMR_NAME_LEN + DSMR_DSA_TRANCHE_SUFFIX_LEN)
```

We should make the limits external (in lwlock.h) and dsa_registery.c
can enforce
based on those values.
