The change introduces a plugin system to starport. A plugin is a binary that can communicate with starport using github.com/hashicorp/go-plugin. When starport is executed under a chain configuration, it checks if the config contains plugins. If yes the plugins are fetched, compiled and ran, which will add more commands to the existing ones. Fetching and compilation are cached under .starport/plugins folder. A new command `starport plugin` has been added to manage plugins and make new ones. To give plugins the ability to load the chain, the function `cmd.NewChainWithHomeFlags` is now public.

Hello guys,
here is the PR for the plugin system I wrote for the HackAtom. I don't know exactly how you want to merge it, since it's not a tiny change, so feel free to tell me. We can do a regular review where you ask for changes, or maybe you prefer to merge like it is and improve it later.
