Instead of excluding all plugins but the link one on OSes other than
Windows and Linux, the new approach allows for a more granular control
by introducing a list of plugins that is supported on the different
platforms.
This replaces the globbing approach which means that new plugins have
now to be included in this list explicitly.
The advantage of this is that this allows for a much greater flexibility
for handling plugins on different OS.
Furthermore the plugin's own directory is no longer added to the
include-path by default. If a plugin wishes to do this, it should do so
explicitly. This should help make the plugins easier to move around in
the future.
This commit introduces a new plugin framework into the codebase of the
Mumble client. Note that "plugin" here really refers to a (more or less)
general purpose plugin and is therefore not to be confused with the
previously available positional data plugins (only responsible for
fetching positional data from a running game and passing that to
Mumble).
The plugin interface is written in C, removing the compiler-dependence
the old "plugins" had. Instead plugins can now be written in an
arbitrary language as long as that language is capable of being compiled
into a shared library and also being capable of being C-compatible.
As already indicated a plugin is essentially a shared library that
provides certain functions that allow Mumble to interface with it.
Inside Mumble the so-called PluginManager is responsible for managing
the plugins and relaying events to the respective callbacks. Plugins
themselves can also interact with Mumble on their own initiative by
using the provided API functions.

Apparently the first commit (59ae429972)
did not include all files.
Furthermore the used script tended to produce funny results in certain
cases. This has been fixed and as a result thereof a few more changes
were made in this second run.
When building on CentOS 8 with default flags which includes Wall flag,
build stops because array n[3] is not initialized. Initialize it to have all
values to be zero.
"wchar_t" is usually 4 bytes big. That's not the case on Windows, where it's 2 bytes instead.
We cannot rely on that type on Linux because the target process could be native or running through Wine.
Also, it's possible that a game uses the same size for "wchar_t" on both Linux and Windows.
This commit introduces two variants of utf16ToUtf8():
1. Accepts std::u16string, for Windows processes.
2. Accepts std::u32string, for Linux processes.
The old variant, which accepted std::wstring, is removed to prevent misuses.
This commit removes all qmake-related build-files from the system. We
have now migrated to cmake and are no longer maintaining qmake anyways
and therefore there is no reason to keep it.
Removing it also clearly states to any potential user/programmer that
this project is no longer intended to be compiled with qmake.
Given that the .pri files no longer exist, the mumble-version.py script
had to be adapted to read the version from the CMakeLists.txt file
instead.
Furthermore a few of the submodules support cmake natively and therefore
we no longer need the src/buid-directory approach in order to build
them. The respective build dirs have been removed and the src-dirs have
been renamed.
