5651	Optimize get_plugin_data	filosofo	jacobsantos	"When get_plugin_data looks up the plugin's Author, URL, Description, etc., it slurps in the entire plugin file, and runs 5 regexp matches against it.  This seems to result in fatal errors for a number of people, as googling will show ![1].

Instead, the get_plugin_data should check just the first 30 lines, as my attached patch does.
