When invoking protoc with the --plugin flag, the path apparently cannot use ~ (even if bash will autocomplete the command line without issue when typing it). The error message produced is:

~/path/to/my/plugin: program not found or is not executable

Using the absolute path works alright.

Protoc should either expand ~, or detect it and inform in the error message that the user should expand it manually.

* Previous config lacks the other dependencies.

* Add Travis status image.
