Long filenames can cause fatal errors in some Windows environments

Depending on the length of a site's root path, the framework's long filenames could result in fatal errors on Windows servers due to the [maximum path length limitation](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx#MAXPATH).

I believe the longest file path in the framework is `woocommerce/payment-gateway/api/interface-sv-wc-payment-gateway-api-payment-notification-tokenization-response.php` which is why this is tagged with `payment-gateway`.

Other than renaming our files, is there any other way we can address this? Is there some way to increase that limitation at a server-level so we can add something to our documentation and support saved replies?

I recall I had a customer back in the day who downloaded the plugin and edited the file names with each update. This is definitely something I'd like to avoid recommending.
