Public bug reported:

For example, when the js plugin is compiled  but not installed (e.g on
Debian is has to be an extra package as it has build-dependencies are
only available on certain architectures).

In this case, when drizzle is installed but the js-plugin package not,
drizzle fails to start:

#drizzled
Can't open shared library '/usr/lib/drizzle7/libjs_plugin.so' (errno: 0 /usr/lib/drizzle7/libjs_plugin.so: Kann die Shared-Object-Datei nicht öffnen: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden)
Couldn't load plugin library named 'js'.

Aborting:"Failed to initialize plugins". Abort was called from
drizzled/drizzled.cc:1341 in init_variables_after_daemonizing()


I think this can be handled in a better way, also to better integrate into Distribution packasging (to avoid that if a plugin in removed that the drizzle fails to start without reconfiguration)

For example, if a plugin is not found, but not explictly enabled, just ignore this. If it is enabled, it should also not fail (if it is not a dependeny on a other installed plugin. It should not fail, because removing a package does not mean that its configuration gets deleted.
(PHP does it like thos: it warns in the log when it does not find an extension)
