initial minimal viable plugin functionality

[Ingo Steinke]

• dev env
• plugin basics
• placeholder content in frontend
• add custom fields to product, see add complex data to existing entities
  • Property names are usually camelCase, with the first character being lower cased.
  • new class ExampleExtensionDefinition containing the field(s) that we wanted to add to the product.
  • this new definition also needs to be registered to the DI container (services.xml)
  • add the new database table via a Database migration.
  • limit percentage range to 0..100 integer values
• prevent overengineering:

Of course, you can also add scalar values without an association to an entity via an extension.

• localize custom field labels (by defining globally in config.xml?)
• add boolean configuration switch show vs. don't show
• move frontend data visualization to new tab (see Developer Training Advanced: Extending frontend products: creating a new tab on the product detail page)
• fall back to colors of the preview screenshot and 2 more
• refactor frontend JavaScript code
• validate and test locally
• validate and test in demo store
• respect the official plugin quality guidelines
• validate using the official test environment, e.g. docker pull ghcr.io/shopwarelabs/testenv:6.6.0 - see https://github.com/shopwareLabs/testenv-platform/pkgs/container/testenv/195773064?tag=6.6.0 for possible newer tags
• prepare text and screenshots for plugin description in English and German
• update README in this repository accordingly
• submit to marketplace

TODO finish and validate code and migrations, reinstall the plugin and verify the settings, before accessing and applying them in the frontend; ensure that the settings snippets are localizable for all languages used.
