all plugins code is here:
https://framagit.org/les/gancio/-/blob/master/server/api/controller/settings.js#L110-134

now is working with a file for each plugin :) this has to be changed for
sure, they will need a specific controller too.

my point is: there's not reason to publish a telegram plugin that i cannot change
settings to, api key, etc... that's why I think we need a way to specify
plugin settings before publishing any plugin.
With "within the release" I mean to embed / include plugins directly
inside the "official" gancio release (disabled by default of course),
avoiding any other additional system.

yep a json schema would be nice. WP has a huge plugin system because
you can change each detail of everything with a plugin, it's full of
hooks at every operation, I don't want to take that path.
for instance, let's say you want to solve this issue with a plugin:
https://framagit.org/les/gancio/-/issues/139#note_1848349
this should be possible with WP way.
