feat(plugin-config): update default plugin Enabled behavior to false and expand test coverage

- Changed default plugin `Enabled` state from `true` to `false` across configurations, runtime logic, and YAML defaults.
- Added helper function `enabledPluginConfigs` for generating plugin configs with `Enabled` set explicitly.
- Expanded unit tests in `pluginhost`, `config`, and `management` to validate behavior changes for disabled plugins, default settings, and skipped load scenarios.
