Adds supports for plugins. Here's a plugin template. This PR will likely generate a lot of merge conflicts for any other PRs that were started before this one was merged.
It also creates a plugins tab in settings that allows users to manage which plugins are loaded and which are not. The list of unloaded plugins is persisted across launches in Config. See Notes/PluginSystem.md for a more detailed description of how the plugin system actually works.
Thanks @thegail for getting the first part of the plugin system working.
