Please give us --anchors back

[lemzwerg]

From a UNIX perspective, activating plug-ins via a resource file only is bad. The right thing IMHO is a command line option. To activate plug-ins, I can imagine an option

--enable-plugin=plugin1,plugin2,...

which should be equivalent to

--enable-plugin=plugin1 --enable-plugin=plugin2 ...

Consequently – and for backwards compatibility – --anchors should be the same as --enable-plugin=AnchorCheck.

Of course, having this option makes only sense if the AnchorCheck plugin does work, which is currently not the case, cf. issue #557.

Is there any news/opinion on this from @wummel? I would also love to have an --enable-plugin.
