Editor plugins write to Game.agf even when not used in the project

Unlike the engine plugins that has to be explicitly enabled for the game, editor plugins seem to hook up to any game on their own and write their data into game project even if you don't use them.

Easiest way to reproduce:

• download SpeechCenter plugin and install in the AGS editor folder;
• open any game in the editor and save.
• inspect Game.agf, you will notice there's section now:

< Component Name="SpeechCenter"' >

• if you remove the plugin and open same project you will be warned about missing plugin and that the game may loose data if you save now.

Not sure if this is a bug or larger design oversight. I think there should be some mechanism similar to engine plugins that would add/remove plugin component in game project source.

I wish there was a way to not have the pop up show with the ok button because it appears even if the Editor is called with /compile flag, hanging a CI pipeline.

I believe there was a relevant ticket for this: #666
