Log Message:
When writing/reading quotes.txt, ignore first 2 lines if WWIV-type
                                                                  
                                                                  WWIV writes 2 
lines of metadata to the beginning of its quotes.txt file created for external m
essage editors. Its not clear yet what these lines should contain, but the first
 line apparently should contain a '#' character since BREdit checks for this cha
racter before deciding to throw-away/ignore these lines (don't use them for quot
ed text). Thanks mlong for this tip!
                                    
                                    So if the external editor is set to "WWIV CH
AIN.TXT" in SCFG (even if the door doesn't need/use it), then the quotes.txt fil
e created by Synchronet will contain the extra 2 lines. We're just writing a # t
o the first line and the second line is blank.
                                              
                                              This fixes reported issue #188.
