Add property that contains values from the manifest

The manifest has various data on it including version, description and changes that can be useful when checking plugin version instead of having version property using the version value from the manifest.

Use Case:
The plugin author wants to show the version, description and changes in the plugin dialog. He uses the new info property on the rootNode object to access values from the manifest.

Hi @Velara,

Couldn’t you use

const manifest = require("./manifest.json");

to access information in your own manifest?

Yeah, stevekwak suggession is preferred and example plugin templates by adobe also use this type of data access from manifest files
