[Code Conventions] Increasing Line Wrapping to 120

[Isuru Udana <is...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

In synapse we are using 100 as the maximum number of characters in a single
line.
It is documented in our development best practices too.

I think it was decided nearly a decade ago.
Now with wide screen monitors and with new IDE versions etc. we should
increase it up to 120.
I found some other apache projects now use 120 as the limit[2] too.

Wdyt ?
