motivation: some plugins need authentication information, having an API to retrieve it from SwiftPM is helpful to abstract different authentication providers

changes:

  • create a new API for plugins to request authentication information from SwiftPM
  • implement the IPC encoding/decoding for the API

TODO:

  • encrypt IPC so that auth info cannot be man-in-the-middle
  • add plugin privilege to signal a plugin would access auth information
  • add tests
