fix(emqx_plugins): allow loading conf for plugin app dir

Prior to this change, plugin config files are only allowed
to be placed in the collective config dir etc/plugins.
In order to support external plugin's drop-in deployment,
this commit made emqx_plugins module to read conf file
in application's etc dir
