Adds a helper for fetching the plugin object

This is useful when you need to "boot" or "register" certain areas of the plugin itself, eg:

    $plugin = $this->getPluginObject();
    $plugin->registerSubscriptionEvents();

Calling boot() or register() may work too but not always, sometimes there can be things you don't want registered. Hence why it doesn't occur automatically.
