Added option to include or exclude Joomla Plugins from being compiled or exported. Added the Joomla\Utilities\ArrayHelper to helper class header. Added option to only export words if required global option fields are set. Added option to use strict field access on all exports if required global option fields are set. Fixed gh-475 by adding the option to add a github token if needed under the global options global tab, also updated the error message.
