Plugin renamer (#393)

This plugin is an alternative to the native batch rename interface in
nnn. qmv from renameutils and vidir from moreutils allow to rename
files without fear of replacing existing files.

# Description: Batch rename selection or current directory with qmv
#
# Notes:
# - Try to mimic current batch rename functionality but with correct
# handling of edge cases by qmv or vidir.
# Qmv opens with hidden files if no selection is used. Selected
# directories are shown.
# Vidir don't show directories nor hidden files.
#
# Shell: POSIX compliant
