m1ngsama 4f3a07c5e2 fix(security): implement comprehensive input validation
- Add is_valid_username() function to prevent injection attacks
  * Reject shell metacharacters: |;&$`<>(){}[]'"\
  * Reject control characters (except tab)
  * Reject usernames starting with space, dot, or dash
- Apply username validation in read_username() with fallback to "anonymous"
- Add rate limiting via sleep(1) on validation failure
- Sanitize message content in message_save():
  * Replace pipe, newline, carriage return to prevent log injection
  * Ensure null termination of sanitized strings
- Enhance message_load() validation:
  * Check for oversized lines
  * Validate field lengths before copying
  * Validate timestamp reasonableness (not >1 day future, <10 years past)
  * Ensure null termination of all loaded strings

These changes address:
- Username injection vulnerabilities
- Message content injection in log files
- Log file format corruption attacks
- Malformed timestamp handling

Prevents:
- Command injection via usernames
- Log poisoning attacks
- DoS via oversized messages
