Investigate changes in SERVER-51333: setFeatureCompatibilityVersion should fail when downgrading from FCV 4.4 to FCV 4.2 with long collection names present

      Description

      Downstream Change Summary

      Setting FCV to 4.4 to 4.2 will now fail if long collection names (> 120chars) are present

      Description of Linked Ticket

      DatabaseImpl::_checkCanCreateCollection() throws an exception if a collection with a name longer than 120 characters is attempted to be created while in FCV 4.2. However, a node undergoing initial sync will also call that function and (depending on whether the admin.system.version collection has already been cloned) would fail its initial sync attempt and eventually exhaust its retries.
