Make VCS plugins configurable

[Sebastian Schuberth]

While VCS implementations already are plugins, they are not configurable yet. As VCS both require configs that are common to all VCS implementations, e.g.

ort/downloader/src/main/kotlin/VersionControlSystem.kt

Lines 166 to 169 in d53ac0b

     /** 
      * The priority in which this VCS should be probed. A higher value means a higher priority. 
      */ 
     protected open val priority: Int = 0 

but should also be able to get implementation-specific configuration, probably an approach like with PackageManagerConfiguration would be feasible.

Having such configuration would probably help to address the following related issues
