Views argument saved as varchar_ascii but should be saved as varchar

Sorry for the late response. This just got on my radar again. Can we reroll this now 🐛 Update viewsreference_update_8103 fails if table name is too long and shortened by Drupal Fixed is in?

@seanB I have rebased the issue fork.

@seanB
I have reviewed your mentioned issue and the commited code.
I think this issue here will be obsolete with the migration from 1.x to 2.x or didnt?
In 2.x the argument column is a varchar(255) by default and your mentioned issue take care of the data migration beteween 1.x and 2.x.
So I think this issue can be dropped in favor of the 2.x solution?

Ah, if this is no longer an issue in 2.x I think we should close this. We should probably migrate people over to 2.x at some point. Most active development is going on in that branch. I think we are almost ready for a stable 2.0 release.
