 plugins may be built without access to SLURM source code. They need
 only be compiled against SLURM’s spank.h header file, added to the
 SPANK config file plugstack.conf, and they will be loaded at runtime
 during the next job launch. Thus, the SPANK infrastructure provides
 administrators and other developers a low cost, low effort ability to
 dynamically modify the runtime behavior of SLURM job launch.
