[StarCluster] Plugins Question - Skipping SGE Install

Hi Austin,

SGE is harmless if you're not using it, but I see your point that it's
extra setup if you're not planning to use it. I'm considering moving it
to a plugin but not sure yet on the right way to go about that. By now
folks are expecting it to be there and would probably think that there
was a bug if it didn't come up automatically without needing to do
something special to their config. Could just be a simple disable_sge
flag in a template I suppose but using plugins is a cleaner approach.

I'll have to think about this one...
