Basic documentation on creating a plugin for Arkestra #112

While i can find documentation on creating Django-CMS plugins, I'm quite sure theres a difference between a vanilla Django-CMS plugin, and a plugin that Arkestra can embed in semantic editor areas like its own image and video plugins.

Even just some brief notes, and code snippets highlighting the lines from the Arkestra plugins that make them different from the vanilla Django-CMS plugin in order to give me an idea what I 'must' reuse in order to get the embedding functionality.

After digging into the source code I found how it determines if the plugin is to be added to the list available inside the semanticeditor.

Django-CMS plugins with text_enabled = True set as part of their properties will be made available to the semantic editor.

Need to work out some doc text to help with this.

I'm hugely busy with http://djangoweekend.org at the moment, but will return to some more development work soon.
