Changeset 11016 for code/trunk/src/libraries/core/module/PluginManager.h

Message:

Added config value to PluginManager to define whether a dereferenced plugin should be completely unloaded (i.e. the shared library is closed) or merely deactivated (i.e. the library remains in the process, but Identifiers and other framework components are removed).
This option is true by default on tardis machines because there it seems impossible to completely unload a shared library due to the use of STB_GNU_UNIQUE which prevents that dlclose() unloads the library. This caused errors when a plugin should have been reloaded, e.g. when the pong level was restarted.
