[Plugin] Allow selectively disabling postprocessing
Adds two mechanisms by which users can choose to disable postprocessing of collected information. First, is a global method exposed via the `--no-postproc` option. Using this option will skip postprocessing for all plugins. Second, is a per-plugin option exposed via a new 'postproc' plugin option. This is set to _True_ by default (meaning yes, perform postprocessing), which users can set to False or off to disable postprocessing for that plugin only; e.g. `-k podman.postproc=off` Closes: #286 Resolves: #1862 Signed-off-by: Jake Hunsaker <jhunsake@redhat.com>
