Subject: Add a HandleReader Plugin

This adds a new `HandleReader` plugin, which displays data from a
Haskell `Handle`. This is really only useful if you are running xmobar
from within another Haskell program, but lets you avoid the mechanics of
creating a named pipe with the proper file permissions.

Instead, you can use `System.Process.createPipe` to make a pair of read
& write Handles. If you pass the read handle to HandleReader, you can
use hPutStr on the write Handle to send data to xmobar from your
application code.
