REVISION SUMMARY Similar to KPackage's cache this speeds up startup where plugins are repeatedly looked up. Especially the fallback path of looking in the plugin root directly causes quite some slowdown. TEST PLAN Speeds up plasmashell startup by ~175ms both with and without dropped caches on my laptop Verified that all applets load fine and that adding applets (both QML-only and C++ applets) after the startup period works fine REPOSITORY R242 Plasma Framework (Library) REVISION DETAIL https://phabricator.kde.org/D14009 AFFECTED FILES src/plasma/pluginloader.cpp To: broulik, #plasma, davidedmundson, mart Cc: kde-frameworks-devel, michaelh, ngraham, bruns
