Load plugins from directory outside app folder. #38

On Mac, plugins need to be installed inside Marknote.app, meaning plugins would need to be reinstalled when the app is updated. Possibly load plugins from the users home directory?

~/.marknote/plugins

Need to look into options for each OS.

I was just thinking about this, and I think I want to manage plugins in the app. In the settings you'll be able to install a plugin by specifying a plugin URL. This way plugins are tracked and they can be re-downloaded on upgrade. I'll probably support GitHub repositories, and any other link to a raw JavaScript file.
