libplugin: hand command, not plugin, to parsing functions.

In particular, for dynamic options we want to create an aux_command in
the case of bookkeeper-currency.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This is a straightforward internal code cleanup in Core Lightning's plugin library. It changes many plugin option-parsing functions so they receive a 'command' object instead of a 'plugin' object. The commit message says this is preparation for future 'dynamic options' work (specifically for a bookkeeper currency feature). There is no bug fix, security patch, or vulnerability visible in the diff itself.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal refactoring. If reviewing the broader dynamic-options feature, verify that dynamic option handlers correctly enforce check_only semantics and do not mutate state during validity checks.

Security signals we found

01

No security-relevant signal in the diff: no bounds checks added, no input validation changes, no memory allocation hardening, no privilege changes, no cryptographic changes.

02

Commit message describes the change as architectural preparation for dynamic options, not a vulnerability fix.
