By design, bcrypt only uses the first 72 bytes of a password when generating a hash. Most implementations, including the reference one, simply silently ignore any trailing input when provided passwords longer than 72 bytes. This can cause confusion for users who expect the entire password to be used to generate the hash. In GenerateFromPassword, reject passwords longer than 72 bytes. CompareHashAndPassword will still accept these passwords, since we cannot break hashes that have already been stored.
