Add Contact Spectrum device functionality

Is your feature request related to a problem? It'd be nice if you could spy on unencrypted comms and get directions of transmissions via the spectrum device.

Solution you'd like: Placeable editor modules that enables Spectrum device ACRE functionality. The device itself could listen in on comms, or alternatively simply get the direction of transmitting players.

It looks like the Spectrum Device can be configured through global variables only. So it won't work in multiplayer and thus there wouldn't really be a point to implement it in ACRE.

From what I can tell it doesn't matter if the variables are global or local.

The device can be configured using global variables. Since the device is calculated locally, it's possible to set different values on each client in multiplayer.
