Description

Pawel has reported that an assay description he provided is truncated to 255 characters.
This could be due to a :truncate=>255, or worse a limit on the database field.

Descriptions in listed views should be truncated, but those in the main view (#show) shouldn't be.

Also check if this is a problem for descriptions for People,Projects Assets Studies and Investigations.

Assay description was a string instead of text, which is limited to 255 chars.

Every other model has a text description, so no problems there.

Made a migration to simply change Assay descriptions to be text instead of strings.
