[Editor] Better expose EditorDebuggerPlugin.
Now splitted into two classes: - EditorDebuggerPlugin (RefCounted). - EditorDebuggerSession (abstract). This allows the EditorPlugin to be in control of the debugger plugin lifecycle, be notified when sessions are created, and customize each of them independently. We should slowly transition the various profilers and captures in ScriptEditorDebugger to their own plugins, and decouple ScriptEditorDebugger from it's UI part (making it the "real" EditorDebuggerSession potentially dropping the wrappers).

<brief_description>
A base class to implement debugger plugins.
</brief_description>
<description>
[EditorDebuggerPlugin] provides functions related to the editor side of the debugger.
- You don't need to instantiate this class; that is automatically handled by the debugger. [Control] nodes can be added as child nodes to provide a GUI for the plugin.
- Do not free or reparent this node, otherwise it becomes unusable.
- To use [EditorDebuggerPlugin], register it using the [method EditorPlugin.add_debugger_plugin] method first.
+ To interact with the debugger, an instance of this class must be added to the editor via [method EditorPlugin.add_debugger_plugin].
+ Once added, the [method _setup_session] callback will be called for every [EditorDebuggerSession] available to the plugin, and when new ones are created (the sessions may be inactive during this stage).
+ You can retrieve the available [EditorDebuggerSession]s via [method get_sessions] or get a specific one via [method get_session].
