In nbdkit we swapped the fields around so that the Fedora package
names are the same as what the upstream project uses
(eg. nbdkit-ssh-plugin).

However this is something you are free to choose for your own project,
so you might use <project>-<type>-<plugin> if you think that is
better.

What Tom has done for lodash is nice, if you can achieve it.  The
nbdkit subpackages are rather non-uniform so it would be difficult for
that project.
