fix(plugins): stop reconciliation install loop, slow plugin list, and uninstall resurrection

Three interacting bugs reported by a user (Discord/ericepe) on a fresh install:

1. The state reconciler retried failed auto-repairs on every HTTP request,
   pegging CPU and flooding logs with "Plugin not found in registry: github
   / youtube". Root cause: ``_run_startup_reconciliation`` reset
   ``_reconciliation_started`` to False on any unresolved inconsistency, so
   ``@app.before_request`` re-fired the entire pass on the next request.
   Fix: run reconciliation exactly once per process; cache per-plugin
   unrecoverable failures inside the reconciler so even an explicit
   re-trigger stays cheap; add a registry pre-check to skip the expensive
   GitHub fetch when we already know the plugin is missing; expose
   ``force=True`` on ``/plugins/state/reconcile`` so users can retry after
   fixing the underlying issue.

2. Uninstalling a plugin via the UI succeeded but the plugin reappeared.
   Root cause: a race between ``store_manager.uninstall_plugin`` (removes
   files) and ``cleanup_plugin_config`` (removes config entry) — if
   reconciliation fired in the gap it saw "config entry with no files" and
   reinstalled. Fix: reorder uninstall to clean config FIRST, drop a
   short-lived "recently uninstalled" tombstone on the store manager that
   the reconciler honors, and pass ``store_manager`` to the manual
   ``/plugins/state/reconcile`` endpoint (it was previously omitted, which
   silently disabled auto-repair entirely).

3. ``GET /plugins/installed`` was very slow on a Pi4 (UI hung on
   "connecting to display" for minutes, ~98% CPU). Root causes: per-request
   ``discover_plugins()`` + manifest re-read + four ``git`` subprocesses per
   plugin (``rev-parse``, ``--abbrev-ref``, ``config``, ``log``). Fix:
   mtime-gate ``discover_plugins()`` and drop the per-plugin manifest
   re-read in the endpoint; cache ``_get_local_git_info`` keyed on
   ``.git/HEAD`` mtime so subprocesses only run when the working copy
   actually moved; bump registry cache TTL from 5 to 15 minutes and fall
   back to stale cache on transient network failure.

Tests: 16 reconciliation cases (including 5 new ones covering the
unrecoverable cache, force-reconcile path, transient-failure handling, and
recently-uninstalled tombstone) and 8 new store_manager cache tests
covering tombstone TTL, git-info mtime cache hit/miss, and the registry
stale-cache fallback. All 24 pass; the broader 288-test suite continues to
pass with no new failures.
