Add generic binary requirements checker #828

Closed dosaboy closed 7 months ago

dosaboy commented 7 months ago

We have requirement types for packages like apt, snap etc but do not have a way to get information from a binary. Some applications are not installed by packages but may still have e.g. a version so having a way to query this is useful. This tries to provide a common way to do do this and uses the Juju plugin/binary as an initial use-case.

Resolves: #815
