Hi, this new plugin provides a way to quickly launch external tools (i.e. 
non-geany tools) in the same context as a document. For example, this includes 
starting a terminal or a file manager in the same directory as the current file.

The commands to execute are configurable in the Plugin preferences, and the 
tools may be launched from the Tools menu, or via keybinds.

The code is built in a way to easily allow addition of extra tools, though in 
the feature it would be really nice to support such customization directly 
through UI in the preferences, without code modification.
