Commit: Skip linker plugin tests if the linker is not configured to support them


Hi Guys,

  The other day I accidentally configured a Linux native linker without
  --enable-plugins specified.  When I ran the linker tests I encountered
  a whole lot of unexpected failures in the ld-plugins/plugins.exp
  directory because of the lack of plugin support.  So I am checking in
  the patch below (mainline and 2.26 branch) so skip the plugin tests
  when plugins are not supported.

Cheers
  Nick
