Make user manually override running a plugin on a profile it doesn't support

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The sockets plugin, among others, only support certain configurations. 
Attempting to run these plugins on other configurations can result in undesired 
behavior. As such, could we add a check to ensure the user doesn't run a plugin 
on an unsupported configuration unless they really want to? The attached patch 
adds a --unsupported flag to override the check for supported configurations.

So we've already been discussing this for a while, please see issue 67 and 
issue 113.  We're leaning towards scudette's solution in comment 5 of issue 113:
