This PR adds an exported
CPLErr GDALRegisterPlugin(const char *name)
function toregister a single plugin by name. Returns an error if either the plugin library
file was not found, or was found but did not contain a suitable plugin loading
function name, or if the plugin loading function CPLError'd.
Some of the plugin loading functionality has been copied over from
GDALDriverManager::AutoLoadDrivers()
instead of being refactored intoa single function as I deemed the return-on-error behavior was too messy to
unify.
