Placementplugin

The plugin stanza is used to configure plugins.

plugin "example-plugin" {
    args = ["-my-flag"]
    config {
       foo = "bar"
       bam {
         baz = 1
       }
    }
}

plugin "example-plugin" {
    args = ["-my-flag"]
    config {
       foo = "bar"
       bam {
         baz = 1
       }
    }
}

The name of the plugin is the plugin's executable name relative to to the plugin_dir. If the plugin has a suffix, such as .exe, this should be omitted.
