 In [changeset:"57658" 57658]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="57658"
 Plugin Dependencies: Remove auto-deactivation and bootstrapping logic.

 Automatic deactivation of dependents with unmet dependencies requires a
 write operation to the database. This was performed during Core's
 bootstrap, which risked the database and cache becoming out-of-sync on
 sites with heavy traffic.

 No longer loading plugins that have unmet requirements has not had a final
 approach decided core-wide, and is still in discussion in #60491 to be
 handled in a future release.

 The `plugin_data` option, used to persistently store plugin data for
 detecting unmet dependencies during Core's bootstrap, is no longer needed.

 Follow-up to [57545], [57592], [57606], [57617].

 Props dd32, azaozz, swissspidy, desrosj, afragen, pbiron, zunaid321,

 Fixes #60457. See #60491, #60510, #60518.
