I think we should be able to detect it if we want but do we want to
add this restriction considering that users can always install the
required plugins after standby gets promoted? I think we can do either
way in this case but as we are not going to use these slots till the
standby node is promoted, it seems okay to validate the plugins after
promotion once users use the synced slots.
