Mirrors the posts/pages content-changes pattern for plugins: - PHP: wire activated_plugin, deactivated_plugin, deleted_plugin, and upgrader_process_complete hooks to record into the realtime changelog, so the admin-footer and Heartbeat paths emit desktop-mode.plugin.changed to any open window. - Bridge: return 'plugin' from _desktop_modeListType for plugins.php so desktop-mode.plugin.changed triggers a soft DOM-swap on that screen. plugin-install.php is intentionally excluded — reloading it mid-session would discard search results or reset an in-progress install. - Bridge: listen for wp-plugin-install-success and post the broadcast directly to the shell, since AJAX installs have no page navigation and admin-ajax.php is outside the chromeless allowlist. The native Plugins window's Installed tab already subscribes to desktop-mode.plugin.changed and calls reload() — no JS changes needed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Fixes #417
I noticed a live sync bug in the plugins page that doesn't exist in the posts and pages page. This copies the same pattern to the plugins page.
