n1mm_contact_spoof and it's needed files #64

I don't have a lot of n1mm logs, so I made a "spoof" tool. Currently it only works on bash and it requires "netcat". It takes a list of 15 random callsigns and randomly changes data in an XML template to simulate data from n1mm. I cat the XML and pipe it to netcat that sends the data to the network port, just like n1mm. I could try to work with ChatGPT to make a python script if that helps.

This has helped me a lot to understand how n1mm and n1mm_view work. I wanted to share one of the tools I use to test my little i2c displays we used at Field day this year. I'm working on that at n1mm_view_radio on github. n1mm_view and the band displays were a hit at Field day this year, so much that I want to put some QSO data on the displays.

I'm new to sharing code on github, please forgive my mistakes.
