Subject: Introduce plugin manager
X-Git-Url: http://git.itanic.dy.fi/?p=rrdd;a=commitdiff_plain;h=11d80cb5b7fc55765fddb94ab3780a4255c79066

Introduce plugin manager

Plugin manager can load plugins at run time from libraries. It expects
the plugin to contain one symbol, which contains plugin_info structure
defined in plugin.h file. The .init function is executed from within
the structure.

Add -rdynamic compiler flag in order to make the existing symbols
become visible to the dynamically loaded libraries.
