Description

OpenSearch plugins are attempting to version independently from core OpenSearch but also support a "npm" or "ruby gem" like dependency versioning approach. This issue is intended to capture discussion around how that's supported in the template and what kind of "scaffolding" might help make this easier for the plugin repositories.

No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the OpenSearch plugin template and the existing three-comment discussion, then identify how independent plugin versioning and dependency handling are currently represented. Done means an agreed versioning strategy and a defined list of template scaffolding requirements.
