Comment:

 https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/10200 PR adds a "Live
 Preview" button to the plugin install screen, allowing users to try
 plugins in a Playground-based environment before installation.

 The button is only displayed when:
 - The plugin provides a valid preview_link in its API data.
 - The plugin is not already installed.

 This enhancement builds upon the WordPress.org Plugin Directory changes
 that introduced Live Previews (see meta ticket #7251).

 === Steps to Test ===
 1. Go to Plugins → Add New in the WordPress admin dashboard.
 2. Search for a plugin with a preview available. For example, try
 searching for "Convert to Blocks".
 3. Confirm that a "Live Preview" button appears next to "Install Now".
 4. The button should open the preview in a new browser tab.
