Description
I am developing a plugin for Markitdown. But this plugin need some additional arguments to make sure it can work better, such as:
markitdown input.pptx --use-plugins --image_dir=./assets > output.md
So I wonder whether it is possible to add a feature to pass some args into plugin layer.

Research direction
Start by tracing the command-line handling of --use-plugins in the markitdown entry point and follow how plugin calls are made. Determine how arguments such as --image_dir=./assets should reach the plugin layer; done means the documented command passes the value through without breaking existing plugin usage.
