Allow plugins to add tasks #562

Feature description

Give the ability to plugins to mutate tasks list.

Motivating example

I'm using the 0.17.0-rc.0. From discussion in #548, I'm trying to move my logic to the plugin system. However, for ease of use, the plugin would need to setup itself in the graphile worker during bootstrap by adding its own internal tasks.

This would allow to remove any core logic specific for LoadTaskFromJsPlugin & LoadTaskFromExecutableFilePlugin.

This issue is not blocking, since my plugin factory could return the plugin and a task list, like so:

const pluginConfig = MyPlugin(someConfiguration)
await run({
    preset: { plugins: [pluginConfig.plugin] },
    taskList: {...pluginConfig.taskList}
}),

However it's easy to miss, and I think that allowing plugins to add their own tasks make sense
