Extend FilePlugin to allow a file to be opened using either the file
descriptor (fd) or FILE* in Pharo.

Original PR: pharo-project/pharo-vm#108
Updated PR: pharo-project/pharo-vm#142

(both superseeded)

As a (redundant) example of how this can be used, to open stderr (fd=2)
for writing:

| stderr |

stderr := BinaryFileStream handle: (FilePluginPrims new
    openFileDescriptor: 2 writable: true)
        file: (File named: 'fd2')
        forWrite: true

stderr nextPutAll: 'Hello World'; lf.
