Reload plugin libraries before selecting Fit Functions in MantidPlot

Description

This would be useful during development of custom Fit function (and perhaps also during custom Algorithms) which would allow the developer of such functions to avoid having to restart MantidPlot to reload the dynamical libraries from the plugin directory.

For instance the plugins may be reloaded before a user select a Fit Function in MantidPlot

Sorry, I disagree here.

Let's leave loading of plugins to once at the startup of Mantid.

What I think we should do to allow rapid tweaking is to allow python functions that can be updated more frequently. We need python functions for a few reasons now.
