kernel-shark: Load 'ctrl' interface for user plugins

Currently, the 'ctrl' interface of all plugins gets called in the
constructor of the MainWindow widget. This works well for the built-in
plugins because the list of those plugins is known in advance. However,
the list of user plugins is populated dynamically, hence it is not known
by the time the constructor of the widget is called. The problem is
solved by making sure we call the 'ctrl' interface every time we load
a user plugin from the menus of the GUI or at start as a command line
option.
