fix: truncate label values longer than 63 characters

[omerap12]

Provide a description of what has been changed
When creating a ScaledObject with a name exceeding 63 characters, an error occurs due to Kubernetes' label length limitations. This PR addresses the issue by truncating the ScaledObject name to ensure it adheres to the label length requirements.

I'm not 100% sure if we should do this or just print an error. We use this label in to recover the SO name during the HPA querying and I'd say that the querying will fail if we truncate this name. But maybe I'm wrong and if we cover the scenario with and e2e test to cover it, I'm fine 😄

oddly enough, HPA seems to have the label truncated since 2021, there it's probably not used that much.

For sure we should add e2e tests for trunc name cases, I'd be curious to see what is the behaviour when two SO with names 63+ chars that differ only in the last truncated characters.

Alternatively, can we refactor the code to use SO uid field? that is guaranteed to be within the bounds but not sure if that would be a breaking change. Or just document that SOs with more than 63 chars are not allowed :)

oddly enough, HPA seems to have the label #1631, there it's probably not used that much.

That applies to the HPA name, and this label is this other line -> https://github.com/kedacore/keda/pull/1631/files#diff-a43846d8ca384145be0f11e006bc0ce798b50c992df46e9b13ff0c55c290bae0L157

The HPA name isn't relevant if there isn't more HPAs in conflict in the namespace, but the ScaledObject name is used to get the SO
