Please consider adding a TEST comparer arg for plist keys.

In Elisp, a plist key need not be a symbol:

(plist-put (list "aaa" 1 "bbb" 2 "ccc" 3) "bbb" 42)

That "works" (and no error), but it doesn't do what's expected, since
the keys should be compared with `equal' or `string=', not `eq'.

And if it were not intended that that work then Elisp would raise a
wrong-type-argument error saying that the first arg isn't a plist.

And note that the Elisp manual says:

  A "property list" ("plist" for short) is a list of
  paired elements.  Each of the pairs associates a
  property name (usually a symbol) with a property or value.
                 ^^^^^^^
