Adafruit_MQTT::publishPacket: Protect against memory corruption.

Avoid memory corruption from happening when data payload provided
in Adafruit_MQTT::publishPacket is greater than MAXBUFFERSIZE.

In order to do that, a helper function is being added to calculate
how much space is available for the payload after subtracting what
is used as the header.
