They have type '[CommandLineOpts] -> Maybe (DynFlags -> IO DynFlags)'.
All plugins that supply a non-Nothing 'dynflagsPlugin' will see their
updates applied to the current DynFlags right after the plugins are
loaded.

One use case for this is to superseede !1580 for registering hooks
from a plugin. Frontend/parser plugins were considered to achieve this
but they respectively conflict with how this plugin is going to be used
and don't allow overriding/modifying the DynFlags, which is how hooks have
to be registered.

This commit comes with a test, 'test-hook-plugin', that registers a "fake"
meta hook that replaces TH expressions with the 0 integer literal.
