Description:
Increased length of table comments (2048) is allowed in Celosia. Whereas Betony or before it is (60). On downgrading table with long comments in Celosia, table comments are corrupted, and length truncated to 80 instead of 60.

- Loses index ---fine as can't create index with comments.
- Column comments truncated from 1024 to 255 length ---fine.
What doesn't look fine is -
Table comments are corrupted, as shown above and length truncated from 2048 to 80 (should have been allowed 60) ??
How to repeat:
As mentioned in the description.
