Add --no-trunc flag to maintain original annotation length

Adds a `--no-trunc` flag to `podman kube generate` preventing the
annotations from being trimmed at 63 characters. However, due to
the fact the annotations will not be trimmed, any annotation that is
longer than 63 characters means this YAML will no longer be Kubernetes
compatible. However, these YAML files can still be used with `podman
kube play` due to the addition of the new flag below.

Adds a `--no-trunc` flag to `podman kube play` supporting YAML files with
annotations that were not truncated to the Kubernetes maximum length of
63 characters.
