Description

As a new Spin developer, I may want to see what plugins are available for use. Being able to query for those on Spin CLI and filter by broad category (trigger type, SDK, etc.) would be very useful. It would also be cool if we built this in a manner so that it could be ingested by our VS Code extension and made visible in the code editor UI.

Research direction

Start by examining the existing Spin CLI plugin discovery or listing entry point and how plugins expose trigger-type and SDK information. Then determine how a category-filtered result could also be consumed by the VS Code extension; done means the CLI lists plugins by category and provides a usable path for editor integration.
