We want to make sure that the LuaEngine is deleted when the plugin
is removed.
We also derive LuaEngine from QObject so we can use it as a guard in
QObject::connect calls.

Previously the LuaEngine::loadPlugin() function tried to fully setup the
lua interpreter. This was called before the dependencies of a lua plugin
were fully soft loaded. Therefore the dependent lua packages had not
been registered yet.
This patch changes that to where the packages and lua libraries are only
loaded right before the actual setup call is done. This also allows us
to safely load the plugin spec without giving it access to all the
functionality directly.
In the future we could show and ask the user before we load the plugin
whether he agrees to give it the requested access.
