Summary
Fixes a slow startup issue caused by multiple copies of default plugins in the
app-desktop/build/defaultPluginsdirectory.This issue was caused by 13da286 and only affects Joplin workspaces that had built default plugins with commits prior to 13da286. As such, it should not affect the released version of v2.14.11.
The issue is fixed by cleaning the build directory before building default plugins.
