REVISION SUMMARY
  When posting large raw image data to imgur in QuickShare, the KIO job ends up 
triggering a notification that displays the entire raw image data, causing 
plasma to freeze:
  
  "Transferring: Finished" "data:image/png;base64, <the entire raw data of the 
image to paste>"
  
  see https://phabricator.kde.org/D4945 for details.
  
  This patch truncates the url string assigned to the job description at 100 
characters and so limits the length of the string that gets sent to the 
notification.
  
  Only emitTransferring() is related to the issue I'm trying to fix, but it 
looked like it was probably sensible to apply the same treatment in the other 
cases of assigning url string to description as well, so I did.
  
  Very unfamiliar with the code here! Would appreciate comments for improving 
the patch. Also not sure who are the right reviewers for this so please add if 
I missed it out.

TEST PLAN
  With a 3000x2000 display and using a blank desktop with the "Evening Glow by 
Ian Hex" wallpaper.
  
  1. Take a screenshot of the whole blank desktop with Spectacle
  2. Click "Copy to Clipboard"
  3. Right click QuickShare plasmoid > Paste
  4. Select Imgur action
  
  Before: plasma becomes unresponsive, shell output should indicate the 
notification as in description.
  
  After: Plasma does not become unresponsive, notification shows with truncated 
string.
