Michel Weststrate bb529411b5 Expose current connection status to Sandy plugins
Summary:
Introduced `isConnected` flag on device and plugin client to reflect whether a connection is still available for the plugins, or that they have been disconnected.

Potentially we could expose the (readonly) `connected` state atom for this as well, or an `onDisconnect` event for device pugins, to create a responsive UI, but there might be no need for that, in which case this suffices.

flipper-plugin

flipper-plugin is the dependency used by all modern Flipper plugins (project "Tommy").

For background: https://fb.quip.com/YHOGAnaPqAVJ

flipper-plugin is to be used as dev and peer dependency of all Flipper plugins. It provides:

  1. (TODO) Standard API's to interact with Flipper, such as the client connection.
  2. (TODO) Standard components to organize the UI
  3. (TODO) Testing utilities

API's provided by flipper-plugin are documented at fbflipper.com (TODO).

There should normally be no need to install flipper-plugin as dependency. Rather, plugins should be scaffolded using npx flipper-pkg init (TODO) as documented here
