The filename is too long

Hello @conda-forge/staged-recipes ,

My recipe failed because of long pathnames in source:

FileNotFoundError: [WinError 206] The filename or extension is too long

Azure CI Win64 Source

We did use long pathname: we have a many subfolders to describe French Taxes. We limit them to 195 characters max (including source folder name), as Windows have a default limit of 256 characters.

The Windows CI failed because of that : We need to reduce length by 30 characters to make it work in staged-recipes CI. That’s too much to keep understandable path.

On my Windows the package build well with conda build --croot d:\tmp .conda to shorten the build folder.

Do you think it’s acceptable to do the same tricks in staged-recipes ? It seem that it need only a modification of https://github.com/conda-forge/staged-recipes/blob/eacdb0130d5174d5dd5bcd4c33b86ebc542996a4/.ci_support/build_all.py#L126

Are we allowed to have a specific script for our feedstock ?
