PluginManager::broadcast_notification was fanning out host notifications to every loaded plugin. Only V4 plugin processes can receive host->plugin notifications; V2/V3 plugins correctly rejected them with notify_plugin requires V4 protocol.
Add PluginProcess::is_v4() and skip non-V4 plugins in broadcast_notification so V4 document snapshot notifications only go to V4-capable plugins. Fixes repeated console errors for Example, Land Survey and V2 Compat.
- Run Plugin Manager release fetches on OS threads so they execute in
parallel instead of serialising on the async executor.
- Reduce V4Connection shutdown poll from 3s to 100ms; the runner is killed
and reaped without blocking host shutdown.
- Add PluginManager::remove and PluginProcess::shutdown_and_wait so
uninstall can stop the runner before deleting files, fixing Windows
access-denied errors on plugin removal.
- Rebuild ribbon immediately after uninstall so the tab disappears.
Autocomplete suggestions came only from all_registered_command_names() —
the compile-time inventory registry returning &'static str — so
runtime-loaded plugin commands could never appear. Typing a plugin's
command prefix (e.g. `LS_`) showed nothing even with the plugin loaded
and its ribbon tab active; dispatch worked, only discovery was blind.
Collect each enabled plugin's ribbon ToolDef command ids plus its
manifest command_prefixes into a dynamic candidate pool
(OwnedRibbonGroup::command_ids → PluginManager::command_names →
plugin_command_names), refreshed in rebuild_ribbon_modules on startup
load, settings reload, and every enable/disable toggle. ranked_matches
now merges this pool with the static registry and returns owned strings.
A plugin.toml `commands = [...]` list for sub-verbs with no ribbon button
(e.g. LS_AUTOLABEL) stays a follow-up — it's a plugin-API surface change.
Closes#272
