The main purpose of this patch is to replace cpu.c with cpu.cc.

This step requires some #include directives of libxfce4util to be enclosed in extern "C" {} because some of the included Xfce4 C files are missing G_BEGIN_DECLS/G_END_DECLS macros. This issue has been fixed in libxfce4util's main GitLab repository, but (1) there hasn't been a release containing this fix and (2) it would delay cpugraph adoption in conservative Linux distributions which are upgrading to newer Xfce library releases less often.

All C++ implementation files (.cc file extension) should include fixes.h before including any other header files.

The new file plugin.c, comprising of a single line of code, is required because XFCE_PANEL_PLUGIN_REGISTER isn't fully compatible with C++.
