[Plugins] Should the plugin package be moved out of internal? #1688

Version

1.14.0

What happened?

I wanted to play around with authoring a plugin, but after reading the documentation and looking at the example code, I realized that the plugin package, which contains the protobuf-emitted code, lives under internal. By definition this means that no Go code outside of sqlc can import it. I saw that the ultimate goal is to have WASM-based plugins, but #1578 indicates that development on that has been stalled, opting for process-based plugins for the time being.

Am I missing something obvious that makes it possible to write a process-based plugin? Or does the plugin package need to be moved out of internal?
