Details

(Whiteboard: p-safari) 

For NPAPI-style plugins, we reequire that the plugin has an exported main()
function, which we call and is expected to fill in the NPN callback function table.

Safari doesn't do this; it just finds the NPN symbols directly in the plugin. We
should support this too (there are plugins that work this way).
We should also be able to look in the Info.plist for the MIME types etc, rather
that requiring a resource file wiht STR# resources.
