The User model applies `validate:"max=12"` to the `Username` field, but the
initial setup flow did not validate this constraint. This allowed creation
of a root user with an overly long username (e.g. "Uselessly1344"), which
later caused every update request to fail with:
Field validation for 'Username' failed on the 'max' tag
This patch adds an explicit length check in `controller/setup.go` to reject
usernames longer than 12 characters during setup, keeping validation rules
consistent across the entire application.
