Suggestion for /admin/upgrade#/

I’m not sure how difficult this would be to implement.

Lately there have been a few issues with people’s instances failing rebuild or not working because of broken plugins.

The status of plugins is monitored here on meta.

A third column in /admin/upgrade#/ which indicated “Broken” or “Suspect” would give a headsup to people before they get themselves in trouble.

Even just a “Check status” which pointed to https://meta.discourse.org/t/ plugin might be worth considering.

I think there is certainly merit in calling out “official” vs “unofficial” on the page, reaching out to meta directo from the page feel a little intrusive and risky. I removed the pr-welcome for now cause we need a lot more information and maybe a visual mock of the suggestion here prior to asking 3rd party developers to build.
