 Upgrade/Install: Move Hello Dolly plugin to directory structure.

 Changes the Hello Dolly plugin from a single file structure to a proper
 plugin directory structure, moving from `hello.php` to `hello-
 dolly/hello.php` to align with Plugin Handbook Best Practices.

 - Adds proper `Text Domain: hello-dolly` header to Hello Dolly plugin
 - Updates core files to remove special case handling for `hello.php`
 - Updates plugin dependency system to handle new directory structure
 - Adds upgrade routine to migrate active plugin references and keep plugin
 active
 - Updates all tests to use new plugin path format `hello-dolly/hello.php`
 - Updates build configuration and .gitignore for new directory structure
 - Adds `hello.php` to old files list for cleanup during core updates
 - Adds `plugins/hello-dolly/` to new bundled directories list
