Allow npm-packages plugins to add workbench plugin config

A plugin can inject a plugin config widget into the workbench, which then can render/do whatever the dev intended. But this feature is currently only supported for local plugins (in the apps "plugin" folder).

We want to enable this for npm-packages plugins as well.

For this we will restructure what a plugin can "export". Per default it supports the "app" as target. Another target is the "workbench". This is the only supported additional target now. But in theory a plugin developer can then create like "scopes" were each of these targets could be used for different parts (but this is merely a future concept)
