Bug Description
Make it simpler to write a plugin, in particular so the author doesn't have to worry about writing code to catch the *_loaded events. We have a *lot* of plugins that share the same bit of code to handle that.
A new style of plugin will be implemented for Exaile 3.4. The old style of plugins will still be supported, as there are some types of plugins that don't require the other events and so are much simpler without additional constraints.
Additionally, most existing plugins in the exaile source tree will be kept the same.
