This adds a 'configured' boolean member to the plugin struct so that we can add plugins to ld->plugins' list and differenciate fresh plugins.
This also adds 'plugins_start' so that new plugins can be started without calling 'plugins_init' and running an io loop
plugin_request_new did nothing special aside from registering the
request ID with the dispatch code. This duty has now been moved to
plugin_request_send instead, which is also exposed so we can use that
code in plugin_hook.

I might have gone a bit overboard with the type-checking, but
typesafe_cb_cast is quite nice to use, so why not. The macro to
register a new hook encapsulates the entire flow from param
serialization, to dispatch, parsing and callback dispatch in one
bundle. I was tempted to have the callback outside of the
registration, but it's unlikely that we'll have two calls to the same
hook with different callbacks.

This currently just invokes GDB, but we could generalize it (though
pdb doesn't allow attaching to a running process, other python
debuggers seem to).

This tells the plugin both the `lightning-dir` as well as the
`rpc-filename` to use to talk to `lightningd`. Prior to this they'd
had to guess.

Also includes some sanity checks for the results returned by the
plugin, such as ensuring that the ID is as expected and that we have
either an error or a real result.
