Christian Decker 8898511cf6 cln-plugin: Defer binding the plugin state until after configuring
We had a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem, where we instantiated the
`state` to be managed by the `Plugin` during the very first step when
creating the `Builder`, but then the state might depend on the
configuration we only get later. This would force developers to add
placeholders in the form of `Option` into the state, when really
they'd never be none after configuring.

This defers the binding until after we get the configuration and
cleans up the semantics:

 - `Builder`: declare options, hooks, etc
 - `ConfiguredPlugin`: we have exchanged the handshake with
   `lightningd`, now we can construct the `state` accordingly
 - `Plugin`: Running instance of the plugin
