Add the Meshtastic plugin

I meant to add this awhile ago but somehow missed it.

Testing Done:
Ran `npm run hugo:server` and verified the plugin showed up.

### Description

In two places in the MSN protocol plugins (`object.c` and `slp.c`), `strncpy`
was used incorrectly.  The size of the array was not checked before copying to
it.  Both bugs affect MSN's MSNSLP protocol, which is peer-to-peer, so this
could potentially be easy to exploit.

### Mitigation

Bounds checking was added in both places.
