      Add a new optional boolean field to config.collections and to config.cache.collections that represents whether a collection supports long names. As part of this work we should also expose methods to get/set this flag.

      The interesting part of this task is to think about the compatibility with previous versions. What happens if I try to parse 5.0 metadata with a 5.1 binary? What does it mean if this field is not present? These are the type of questions we have to solve here. You can get some ideas from allowMigrations.
