Qt: Add Install Plugin to Tools menu
Add an option to the tools menu to copy a binary plugin file (a .dll or .so) to the personal plugin folder. This avoids the user having to create the paths manually and knowning a lot of relatively unimportant details about where and how Wireshark loads binary plugins. It will also try to validate the plugin and do some sanity checks to ensure the ABI is compatible.
