This allows us to print better warning strings, and in the future
would allow us to profile each operation in a meaningful way.
Also, add context to some of the progress steps as required.
This allows creating the silo when starting the engine with custom
plugin keys such as WacomI2cFlashBaseAddr.
If we move the plugin initialization earlier then we don't get the
HwID matches, so we really do have to split this into a 4-stage startup,
e.g. ->load(), ->init(), ->startup() and ->coldplug().
Provide a device instance builder that allows plugins to easily
create multiple instance IDs based on parent attributes.
Also fix a lot of the instance ID orders, so that we add more generic
IDs first, and more specific IDs after.
tristate features will automatically disable if dependencies marked
as required are missing.
Packagers can manually override using `auto_features`.

We were calling g_module_symbol() 2703 times, which is actually more
expensive than you'd think.
It also means the plugins are actually what we tell people they are:
A set of vfuncs that get run. The reality before that they were dlsym'd
functions that get called at pretty random times.
It's actually quite hard to build a front-end for fwupd at the moment
as you're never sure when the progress bar is going to zip back to 0%
and start all over again. Some plugins go 0..100% for write, others
go 0..100% for erase, then again for write, then *again* for verify.
By creating a helper object we can easily split up the progress of the
specific task, e.g. write_firmware().
We can encode at the plugin level "the erase takes 50% of the time, the
write takes 40% and the read takes 10%". This means we can have a
progressbar which goes up just once at a consistent speed.
