Description
Currently on the portable runner `–beam_plugins` is ignored. They should instead be imported on SDK harness startup.
Imported from Jira [BEAM-13993](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-13993). Original Jira may contain additional context.
Reported by: SteveNiemitz.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing how the portable runner handles `--beam_plugins`, then follow the Python SDK harness startup path. Check BEAM-13993 for additional context. Done means the plugins are imported when the SDK harness starts instead of being ignored.
