Plugin folder should be stored directly within the installed app #400

When you upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1 TCmenu writes the (4.1.1) plugin dependencies into ~/.tcmenu which are used for tcmenu 4.0 as well

The problem is here that 4.0 and 4.1 are not fully backward compatible, so you cannot use tcmenu 4.0 besides 4.1 to edit an old 4.0 project

Actually, this led me to a solution that I should have used years ago, just let the installer put the plugins in place (in the installed directory) instead of the app itself. The default plugins should never be used by any other version anyway.

Will be part of 4.2.
