Increase the JSON BSSID buffer to match the new format.

fillStr2MAC now accepts 17-character separated values, but wled00/cfg.cpp, Lines [98-115], still passes 13 to getStringFromJson for bssid. A value such as 9E:2A:6F:44:27:7A is truncated before it reaches this parser. The parser then sees fewer than 12 hexadecimal digits and clears multiWiFi[n].bssid.

Increase the bssid destination and copy limit to at least 18 bytes: 17 characters plus the NUL terminator. Add regression coverage for colon-separated and hyphen-separated values through the JSON configuration path.

Suggested fix 
- getStringFromJson(bssid, wifi[F("bssid")], 13);
+ getStringFromJson(bssid, wifi[F("bssid")], 18);

Also resize the bssid destination array if it is currently 13 bytes.

In `@wled00/network.cpp` around lines 342 - 358, Increase the bssid JSON
destination buffer and getStringFromJson copy limit in the configuration parsing
flow to at least 18 bytes, resizing the destination array if needed, so
17-character colon- or hyphen-separated MAC values reach fillStr2MAC intact. Add
regression coverage that loads both separated formats through the JSON
configuration path.
