511  * Thrown when the supplied data does not fit any QR Code version. Ways to handle this exception include:
512  * - Decrease the error correction level if it was greater than Ecc::LOW.
513  * - If the encodeSegments() function was called with a maxVersion argument, then increase
514  *   it if it was less than QrCode::MAX_VERSION. (This advice does not apply to the other
515  *   factory functions because they search all versions up to QrCode::MAX_VERSION.)
516  * - Split the text data into better or optimal segments in order to reduce the number of bits required.
517  * - Change the text or binary data to be shorter.
518  * - Change the text to fit the character set of a particular segment mode (e.g. alphanumeric).
519  * - Propagate the error upward to the caller/user.
