this is evidently not an ideal solution, and something more dynamic would be preferred so that we don't have to manually register an item for every permutation.

If plugins fail to load for some reason, it's highly likely that some critical functionality of the server is compromised. For example:
- if an NPC plugin fails to load, all custom entities added by that plugin will be deleted from worlds
- if a world protection plugin fails, players will be able to grief your otherwise immutable lobby map
- if a worldgen plugin fails, worlds using custom generators won't load
- if a permission plugin fails, players might have access to commands and features they aren't supposed to have
- the list goes on...
This change makes the server commit graceful suicide if any plugin fails to load for error-related reasons, including (but not limited to):
- Incompatible API version
- Missing dependencies
- Invalid plugin.yml
- Invalid main class
Plugins prevented from loading by `plugin_list.yml` are not considered errors and **are not** included in this change. If a plugin is disallowed from loading due to the `plugin_list`, the server will continue to run as if the plugin was not present.
I thought I did this already in eff856d8e5, but it looks like my brain slipped a gear.
Without this change, it's possible to crash the server by specifying an invalid generator for the default world if it doesn't yet exist.
this resolves a range of issues with quoted arguments when using placeholders, as well as improving performance (no redundant combine -> re-parse needed).
