Path-registered plugin reload/restart now refreshes persisted manifest metadata instead of leaving stale version/settingsSchema in the store.
- PluginLoader.loadPlugin/reloadPlugin call a new refreshPersistedManifestMetadata helper after each fresh module import, generalizing the previously bundled-only refresh to path-registered plugins
- Refresh is metadata-only (version, settingsSchema) via a stable-JSON comparison, preserving per-project enablement and saved setting values, and is a no-op when nothing changed
- PluginStore.PluginUpdateInput/updatePlugin gain a settingsSchema field (undefined = unchanged, null = explicitly clear) so updatePlugin can persist manifest schema changes independently of setting values
- Docs: add a "Updating path-registered plugins" section to docs/PLUGIN_AUTHORING.md describing the new reload/refresh loop
- Tests: add coverage in plugin-loader.test.ts and plugin-store.test.ts for manifest metadata refresh on load/reload and settingsSchema persistence
- Add a patch changeset for @runfusion/fusion
