Allow typed data plugins to receive injected dependencies

Problem/Motivation

Typed data plugins need to have dependencies injected. See #2903549: Replace REQUEST_TIME with time service in CreatedItem β†’ as an example of plugin that can benefit from this

Proposed resolution

1. Make TypedDataManager container aware (use ContainerAwareTrait)
2a. Check if created plugin implements ContainerAwareInterface, and if yes, call its setContainer() method.
2b. Check if plugin definition contains "services" section. If no - same logic as before. If yes,
3a. Inject services in additional parameter of createInstance()
3b. Assume that plugin implements ContainerFactoryPluginInterface, call ContainerFactoryPluginInterface::create()
3c. Directly call plugin constructor

2a is 2a and 3b are fully backwards compatible.
3a should be BC as well (on assumption that no plugins use extra parameters to createInstance())
