Add a setting to prevent plugins from sending/receiving internet packets. #2157

Detailed description of your suggestion

There is a plugin in specific that I feel needs to have it's web contact turned off in the in-app marketplace called Minecraft Title Generator, and it was one of the top recommendations in the list of available plugins. the thing I find weird, however, is that every time I open the plugin UI or generate text using the plugin, it sends packets to the creator's website for his discord bot's API (presumably collecting statistics) which then get caught and flagged by my antivirus due to the receiving site being untrustworthy. I wish there was a setting in blockbench to prevent packets being sent by installed plugins, as to not make the plugin system seem intrusive.
