Event Handling

By default the plugin only subscribes to connect and disconnect events from c-lightning. These are defined in the config.json and can be expanded. More info on events and other options can be found here. This plugin can be expanded to do more than only waiting for events. For example, it could define methods to be registered in the lightningd daemon.
