RFC 2683 section 3.2.1.5 recommends it:

> For its part, a server should allow for a command line of at least
> 8000 octets.  This provides plenty of leeway for accepting reasonable
> length commands from clients.  The server should send a BAD response
> to a command that does not end within the server's maximum accepted
> command length.

To conserve memory, we won't bother reading the entire line
before sending the BAD response and disconnecting them.
