Nowadays, paths are long. It would make sense either:

(Option 1): Change the `old_path` and `new_path` from `CharField` to
`TextField`.
(Option 2): Let the `RedirectFallbackMiddleware` middleware use customized
`Redirect` model.

If any of the solutions is found acceptable, I could come up with a pull
request.

Best regards,
