Update the plugins page for the new process
This includes defining the process and providing a template for a new issue to
add new plugins. I did go through and audit `No IRC /WHO` so we had at least
one validated entry.
Testing Done:
Ran `npm run hugo:server` locally and verified the page worked and checked the new links.

--- title: Services (Protocols) date: 2019-08-08T04:51:42.000Z replaces: [] weight: 10 lastmod: 2019-08-08T04:51:42.000Z --- The most unique feature of Pidgin compared with other instant messaging clients is that Pidgin enables users to log in to their accounts on multiple chat networks (also known as services or protocols) simultaneously, all from a single application. Pidgin supports a variety of protocols out of the box. In this group of pages you will find answers to the most common Service-specific questions. In case you have questions about a protocol plugin[^1] that you found in our [plugins]({{< ref "plugins" >}}) section, then our advice is to ask its authors (usually you can find a method to reach out to a project authors in the repository where its code is hosted). These plugins have been developed by third parties and thus we don't have the knowledge or capacity to support them. [^1]: A protocol plugin is what allows Pidgin to support a protocol that doesn't come with it out of the box.
