commit fcd61f90e7469cb4c9a3263ce81117e0d2158864
Author: Juergen Spitzmueller <spitz at lyx.org>
Date:   Fri Jul 5 17:19:24 2024 +0200

    Cut excessively long author lists before parsing them for the GUI
    
    as they will be truncated anyway.
    
    Fixes performance issues with long author lists in bib files.
    
    (cherry picked from commit 7d2d26132b6bb285e96d65da5ca8269061af8d6c)
