Enhancement: Allow status-right customization about tmux HOT 4 OPEN

I've been using a really dirty workaround for the last few months to get some custom status-right configuration. I haven't had any issues so far so I'm going to share it here for anyone to see.

Just some background information to understand the hack: the very bottom line run "~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm" in the tmux.conf file is used to initiate the tmux plugins.

As such, I am emptying dracula's status-right with set -g @dracula-plugins " ", and I write my own personalized status-right configuration after the tmux plugin initializations.

For my status-right, I'm using the plugin kube-tmux to show my kubernetes configuration, and also some very hacky code to appropriately display either the local or remote hostname:

run '~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm'
set-option -ga status-right "#[fg=#44475a,bg=#ffb86c] #(~/.tmux/plugins/kube-tmux/kube.tmux 250 black black) #[bg=#44475a,fg=#ffb86c] #{?#{!=:#{pane_current_command},ssh},#h,#(ps -t #{pane_tty} -oargs | awk -F@ '/ssh/ { print $2 #}')} "
# explanation for the what the f. is going on.
# #{?                                   // ? is an introduction to tmux's conditionals.
#   #{!=:#{pane_current_command},ssh},  // if #{pane_current_command} is ssh, returns 1, else 0. 
#   #h,                                 // #h is the hostname of the local host
#   #(ps \                              // use ps find the ssh process
#     --tty #{pane_tty}                 // list all processes attached to the pane's tty
#     -oargs \                          // show full cmdline in output
#       | awk \                         // get some awk in here.
#           -F@ \                       // split the cmdline by the '@' of the uri.
#           '/ssh/ { print $2 #}')}     // filter for commands with ssh, and print the hostname

Are you getting at the same idea as #43 ? Ideally we would like to make it so that each block in the status bar could be customized to whatever you like, in any order you like, with your own selection of dracula themed colors.

As for your specific desire to change the date format, you can always fork and edit scripts/dracula.sh to make it that format while we do not have further customization abilities built in to the project.

That would be great but in the meantime a workaround would be to have a property to disable the status override or to have every module do a -ga instead of starting clean. That way users could add their desired data on the left part and dracula could add it's on the right.

I think that's a good idea, to fix the date format a PR to add UK date format is pending.

If you have some idea on how to implement it and would like to submit a PR that'd be great!
