[Bug 1096550] [NEW] Allow pre-profile module loading

 

Public bug reported:

Practical problem: it's necessary for a module to be able to be loaded
and be first, before the users triggers/scripts. This way, the user can
overwrite triggers / scripts with their own things, keeping their
changes when they upgrade the module.

At the moment, the user has to manually move the trigger/script folders
of the module after ever upgrade for their changes to stay.

Proposed solution: allow modules to be loaded, that is, be listed before
triggers/aliases. I don't think all modules should do this by default,
as taking up space on top means the user will have to constantly scroll
down to their own things if they have many modules installed. It should
be configurable per-module.

One way to accomplish this would be through negative module priority -
allow -1 to be the first module loaded that's before users scripts, -2
the second, and so on. 0+ priorities would still be loaded post-
triggers/script as before.
