> As per "Proposal: hooks support for plugins" dev mail thread discussion
> Hi, I have an idea how we can add more flexibility to plugin developers.
> Note, right now we have Application Developers – someone who use Cordova for 
> developing applications and Plugin Developers – someone who creates plugins 
> so that Application Developers can use them. For Application Developers we 
> expose  hooks so that they can customize their build/package/etc process. I 
> want us to provide similar sort of flexibility to Plugin Developers so that 
> they can go beyond of <source/>, <framework/>  tags and get mechanism to add 
> custom installation,  build logic required by a plugin. Example usage will 
> include: downloading/compiling additional binaries, marking source file to be 
> copied to output dir, changing target build platform,  etc. At present time 
> the steps described could be only achieved by hooks manually added by 
> Application Developer, but the right way is to allow Plugin Developer to 
> expose this as part of plugin definition.
> Example configuration could look like
> ```
> <script type="postinstall" src="scripts/postinstall.js" />
> <script type="preinstall" src="scripts/preinstall.js" />
> <script type="install" src="scripts/install.js" />
> ```
> beforeinstall/preinstall – run before plugin is installed
> install/postinstall/afterinstall – run after plugin is installed
> uninstall – run after plugin is uninstalled
