imkingdavid/ACP-Announcement-Feed — Issue #1: [Bug] URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration

When `allow_url_fopen` is set to `Off` in the `php.ini` settings file, `simplexml_load_file` cannot be used on a non-local file path (i.e. a URL, like the one used by the MOD to reach phpBB's feed: `http://www.phpbb.com/feeds/index.php`).

To fix, check and see if the setting is set to `Off`, and if so use an alternate method of getting the feed. Version 1.0.0 works in such cases, so I may need to create a fallback function to allow all users to use the MOD regardless of their server settings.
