Description
The experience of installing Hyper from scratch has a few issues:
- It shows a notification that "plugins were installed", when simply the directory is just being initialized. No plugins were installed
- When you first change the configuration, it thinks the shell has changed and displays a notification. The default value of the shell in the config is
'', should benull, and the comparison should consider both nully[1] and not show the notification.
[1] just coined this, derivative of falsy 🙈

Research direction
Trace the first-run installation and configuration-change notification paths described in the issue, starting with the initialization behavior and the shell value comparison. Done means a fresh install does not report plugins as installed, and the first configuration change does not report a shell change when the shell value is unset.
