Plugin management.

AllenNLP supports loading "plugins" dynamically. A plugin is just a Python package that can be found and imported by AllenNLP. This is done by creating a file named .allennlp_plugins in the directory where the allennlp command is run that lists the modules that should be loaded, one per line.
