marker: tighten marker name max length from 128 to 32

128 characters was far beyond any realistic marker label (icmp, arp, tcp-syn)
and would have collided with the pcap filename budget once a tag prefix is
added later. Cap the user-facing name at 32 in both MarkerCreate and
MarkerDefinitionCreate; the compute-side name guard now also rejects names
longer than 48, which covers the `global-{def_name}` inherited form (≤ 39).

   filter, the pcap filename, and `MARK` signal routing — so rename is a delete + recreate,
   not a field update. PUT ignores the body `name`; the `{name}` path parameter identifies
   the target, and only `bpf / tag / color / enabled / highlight_duration` are changeable.

   markers are stored as `global-{definition_name}` so the two namespaces cannot collide.
   Omitting `name` on create yields an auto-generated, prefix-free name.
