/**
 * @class Plugin plugin.h <KParts/Plugin>
 *
 * @short A plugin is the way to add actions to an existing KParts application,
 * or to a Part.
 *
 * The XML of those plugins looks exactly like of the shell or parts,
 * with one small difference: The document tag should have an additional
 * attribute, named "library", and contain the name of the library implementing
 * the plugin.
 *
 * If you want this plugin to be used by a part, you need to
 * install the rc file under the directory
 * "data" (KDEDIR/share/apps usually)+"/instancename/kpartplugins/"
 * where instancename is the name of the part's instance.
 *
 * You should also install a "plugin info" .desktop file with the same name.
 * \see KPluginInfo
 * @deprecated Since 5.90, the concept of KPart plugins is deprecated.
 * In the Konqueror KF5Konq lib is a reimplementation of this class, which is not deprecated.
 * Consider porting your usage to this class or import the plugin in Konqueror.

     * This method uses the KConfig object of the given instance, to find out which
     * plugins are enabled and which are disabled. What happens by default (i.e.
     * for new plugins that are not in that config file) is controlled by
     * @p enableNewPluginsByDefault. It can be overridden by the plugin if it
     * sets the X-KDE-PluginInfo-EnabledByDefault key in the .desktop file
     * (with the same name as the .rc file)
     *
     * If a disabled plugin is already loaded it will be removed from the GUI
     * factory and deleted.
     *
     * If you change the binary interface offered by your part, you can avoid crashes
     * from old plugins lying around by setting X-KDE-InterfaceVersion=2 in the
     * .desktop files of the plugins, and passing 2 to @p interfaceVersionRequired, so that
     * the old plugins are not loaded. Increase both numbers every time a
     * binary incompatible change in the application's plugin interface is made.
     *
     *
     * This method is automatically called by KParts::Part and by KParts::MainWindow.

     *
     * If you call this method in an already constructed GUI (like when the user
     * has changed which plugins are enabled) you need to add the new plugins to
     * the KXMLGUIFactory:
     * \code
     * if( factory() )
     * {
     *   const QList<KParts::Plugin *> plugins = KParts::Plugin::pluginObjects( this );
     *   for ( KParts::Plugin * plugin : plugins )
     *     factory()->addClient( plugin );
     * }
