Error while updating to 4.0.0-b1 - "have to change some columns to TEXT or BLOBs"

Hi,

I did the automatic update right now and encountered this error. We have a relatively small installation.

Critical Error during the update process:
/home/members/artisticactivism/sites/c4aa.org/web/matomo_stats/core/Updates/4.0.0-b1.php: Error trying to execute the migration 'ALTER TABLE `matomo_log_visit` ADD COLUMN `visitor_seconds_since_first` INT(11) UNSIGNED NULL, ADD COLUMN `visitor_seconds_since_order` INT(11) UNSIGNED NULL, ADD COLUMN `visitor_seconds_since_last` INT(11) UNSIGNED NULL, ADD COLUMN `profilable` TINYINT(1) NULL;'. The error was: SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1118 Row size too large. The maximum row size for the used table type, not counting BLOBs, is 8126. This includes storage overhead, check the manual. You have to change some columns to TEXT or BLOBs

Wrapped but formatted version for easier reading

I’m familiar enough with mySQL to create databases, install, backup, and make a few changes but it’s not something I work with often. If you have suggestions, please speak clearly. Thanks!
