Plugin Manifest

The manifest file is a JSON file that describes various properties of the plugin. If you use the Yeoman generator, it should be automatically generated based on the answers you've provided. The supported properties are:

Name	Required?	Description
`manifest_version`	Yes	For now should always be "1".
`name`	Yes	Name of the plugin. Should be a user-friendly string, as it will be displayed in the UI.
`version`	Yes	Version number such as "1.0.0".
`app_min_version`	Yes	Minimum version of Joplin that the plugin is compatible with. In general it should be whatever version you are using to develop the plugin.
`description`	No	Detailed description of the plugin.
`author`	No	Plugin author name.
`homepage_url`	No	Homepage URL of the plugin. It can also be, for example, a link to a GitHub repository.

Here's a complete example:

{
    "manifest_version": 1,
    "name": "Joplin Simple Plugin",
    "description": "To test loading and running a plugin",
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "author": "John Smith",
    "app_min_version": "1.4",
    "homepage_url": "https://joplinapp.org"
