Add support for %(objectname:short=<length>) which would print the abbreviated unique objectname of given length. When no length is specified, the length is 'DEFAULT_ABBREV'. The minimum length is 'MINIMUM_ABBREV'. The length may be exceeded to ensure that the provided object name is unique.

Add tests and documentation for the same.
