Hornwitser 2c52c265cf Require config files to be explicitly created (#1040)
The behaviour of creating the config file if it's missing while
convenient causes confusion and problems when the tools are run
in the wrong folder.  They end up creating a shadow installation
and misdirect the user with nonsensical error messages, instead
pointing to the real problem which is that the tool can't find
the configuration needed to actually run.

Require a config file to be present at startup and refuse to run if this
file is missing.  To support the odd use-case of creating the config
when missing a --create-config flag is added. To conveniently generate
a config file to edit out from the "config create" command is added.

bbassieandClaude Fable 5.1 7c0f77499c Address review on plugin install
Rethrow errors other than ENOENT and ENOTDIR when reading the package
spec as a directory, mark the tests that run npm as slow so FAST_TEST
skips them, and use ./external_plugins/my_plugin in the README examples.

bbassieandClaude Fable 5.1 5606d5d553 Add plugin install command to controller, host and ctl
Installing a plugin used to take two steps, npm install followed by plugin
add, and both silently did their work in whatever directory they were run
from. The new plugin install <package> subcommand runs npm install --save
and then discovers the plugin through the existing loadPluginList logic,
so the plugin list is updated in the same step.

The command refuses to run outside a Clusterio installation, detected by
the package.json the installer writes or one that depends on a Clusterio
package. plugin add with a bare package name warns in the same situation.

Reinstalling a plugin that is already listed reports it as such instead of
failing. Installing a package without the clusterio-plugin keyword fails.

Fixes #1008

Hornwitser 71f78c14a3 Add command for copying static assets to a folder
This is useful in case the static assets are hosted by a separate web
server like Nginx, or for testing that the static_url option works as
intended.

Hornwitser 6fc3abafd5 Rename Slave to Host
The role of a slave as a host for Factorio servers is not well reflected
in its name and has caused confusion among users.  Rename slave to host
to better reflect its role as a host of Factorio servers.

Hornwitser 70ad295a89 Rename Master to Controller
The role of the master server as the party controlling every part of the
cluster is not well reflected in its name and has caused confusion among
users on several occasions.  Rename master to controller to better
reflects its role.
