A buggy external plugin that panicked anywhere — during load (version,
register, manifest), during ribbon build / dispatch, or inside an
interactive command (prompt, on_point, on_enter, on_object_pick) — took
the host down with it (#134). Run every cdylib entry point under
catch_unwind so the host stays up: the plugin's call is treated as
inert (load fails, dispatch returns "didn't handle it", interactive
hooks resolve to Cancel) and a "Plugin <hook> panicked: …" line lands
in the command line on the next tick. (#145)
Scope is Rust panics across the cdylib boundary, not genuine UB —
real isolation (segfault-proof) still requires out-of-process plugins.

OpenCADStudio no longer bundles plugins — every add-on is an external
cdylib loaded from the plugins folder or installed via the marketplace.
- Remove the demo plugin and the in-tree ocs_example_plugin crate.
- Remove the inventory-based built-in registration path (PluginRegistration,
all_plugins, installed_manifests); registry now serves core ribbon tabs
plus loaded external plugins, and try_dispatch routes only to externals.
- Plugin Manager drops the 'compiled into this build' section; the
enable/disable toggle moves onto loaded external cards.
- Prune the now-dead HostSession/DocumentTab helpers and re-exports.

Add a Plugin Manager marketplace that installs external add-ons from a
GitHub repo's Releases. A curated registry (plugins/registry.json in this
repo, extended by PR) lists discoverable plugins; the host fetches it,
shows each entry with a release dropdown, and on install downloads the
asset matching the user's platform plus plugin.toml into the plugins
folder (API-version checked first). Users can also link arbitrary
owner/repo manually. Linked repos persist in settings.
Desktop only (ureq + serde_json); the install path reuses the phase-2
loader. Part of the #100 extensibility epic (phase 2).

Phase-2 groundwork: scan <config>/OpenCADStudio/plugins/<id>/plugin.toml,
parse the documented keys (no new TOML dep), check for a platform native
library beside it, and gate on the API version. The Plugin Manager gains
an "External (plugins folder)" section showing each package with a
status pill (Ready to load / API incompatible / No library). Discovery
only — actually loading the cdylib is the next step.

The manager was a read-only inventory. Each plugin now has an
Enable/Disable toggle: a disabled plugin keeps its manifest listed but
drops its ribbon tab and command dispatch. The disabled-id set persists
in settings.txt (disabled_plugins=) and the ribbon rebuilds on toggle.

Read-only inventory of the add-ons compiled into the build — name, version,
id, API level, description, command prefixes — built from the extracted
`ocs_plugin_api` manifest. Opened with the `PLUGINS` / `PLUGINMANAGER` command
or the Start-page "Plugins" button.
Adds `installed_manifests()` to the plugin registry and wires the window the
same way as the existing About / Shortcuts windows.
Part of #100 (phase-1 plugin manager UI stub).
