Design: Subflow Node modules

This is a work in progress. Do not start implementing anything without discussing with @knolleary first
The goal of this feature is to allow a subflow to be packaged as an installable npm module and loaded into the runtime.
It will appear in the palette in the same way as any regular node; the end-user will not need to know the node is implemented as a subflow.
Node-RED Nodegen should be updated to supported creating such a module.
Topics this design must cover:
- how the runtime registry knows a module provides a subflow type node
- how the module declares its node dependencies
- how the node's help template and edit template are provided - See also Design: Subflow Instance properties
