new conversion plugin type

[bradrydzewski]

I just wanted to let you know we created a new type of plugin called a conversion plugin. The conversion plugin receives the YAML in the request payload and returns a modified version (similar to config plugins). The benefit of the conversion plugin is you do not have to worry about fetching the YAML from version control since it is provided, and it also should improve compatibility with signing the YAML.

Feel free to ignore or close this issue, since there is no pressing requirement to use the new conversion plugin type. I just wanted to make sure you were aware, and to give you the opportunity to simplify your codebase :)
