Disable plugins after they fail to load enough times / Retry loading plugins?

This my dev EE console every time I start it:

[MAIN] ✅ Kafka consumer connected!

Right now if a plugin fails during initialisation, we'll just try again next time the server restarts. It might make sense to punish plugins that fail on boot by disabling them. Perhaps with some retry strategy?

Somewhat related to #273 and #72

Does not seem urgent right now, just documenting.

Here's an example of a plugin that fails in a different way: https://sentry.io/organizations/posthog/issues/2375532863/?project=5592816&query=is%3Aunresolved&statsPeriod=14d

After a few of these the plugin should somehow be taken out of the pipeline.

#380 fixed this
