Thanks for the patch.  One problem is that the patch hard-codes the ellipsis,
so that the user loses the ability to configure it.

A better way would be to leave defvar tab-bar-tab-name-ellipsis,
but by default set its value to nil.  So when it's non-nil,
then use its value, otherwise use "…"/"..." by default.
