What
Startup now handles the plugin registry being named either way, renaming installed_plugins_v2.json back to installed_plugins.json as well as upgrading an older V1-format file, so downgrading and upgrading no longer strands your installed plugins.
Details
The plugin count is logged when a V1 file is converted.
Once done, an installedPluginsMigrated marker prevents the work repeating.
Evidence
Renamed installed_plugins_v2.json to installed_plugins.json
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
