I only realize this now as I didn't investigate that much in the context
of the original discussion: we never elide in the middle ATM - before
changing this I think we need to be certain that other cases shouldn't
be changed, or that this should be changed in the spec, since it would
seem rather strange to have only a single case of middle ellipsis.

Title:
  Button label should ellipsize in the middle

Status in Ubuntu UX:
  New
Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  As per the Buttons spec

  "In the unlikely event that a button’s label is too long for the width
  available, it should be ellipsized in the middle"

  Currently the Label in ButtonForeground ellipsizes in the end.

  Also quoting Matthew on the reasoning:

  (1 Two buttons with long but similar labels are more likely to differ at 
their ends than their middles (e.g. “Change This Event Only” vs. “Change This 
And Future Events”).
  (2 End ellipsis is already used to mean “you’ll need to do something else 
after tapping this”.
