    Fix buffer overflow in guru chat parsing engine

    The trigger was this line in the recent change to guru.dat:
    Unrealized potential. :-(

    That open paren was parsed as the beginning of a new guru expression. A very long guru expression that overflowed the stack variable 'str' here.

    Log Message:
    A close-parenthesis in a guru.dat response string would throw-off the parser

    After a negative-match of a Guru expression, we were searching for the next
    '(' anywhere in the subsequent chars of the file rather than just the next
    line that started with an open-parenthesis character.

    This bug was the secondary cause of the buffer-overflow crash addresseed in commit 62e2280e which was triggered by my recent updates to the guru.dat.

    Don't allow sysops to page or send messages to nodes without a useron

    Fix a long standing bug where by sysops could page for chat or send node messages or telegrams to any node, even if there wasn't a user even connected.

    Regular users were not affected by this bug.
