Instead of hardcoding plugin lists in autopath/health, use interfaces. (#1306)

Switched health and autopath plugin to allow any plugins to be used instead
of a hardcoded list. I did not switch federation over since it wasn't
obvious that anything other than kubernetes could be used with it.

Fixes #1291
