Use full canonical path to installed plugins

Resolves symlinks which may be used for the plugin folder, e.g. by plugin developers who symlink a development folder into their profile's plugin folder path. Makes it a bit easier for plugin developers to see whether a plugin is pointing to a local development path or a plugin installed through the repo.
