plugin reloading is broken on non cluster pages (like settings)

[illume]

Describe the bug

For me reloading with "npm start" is broken except on the home page.

Note, only seems to happen only on non-cluster pages that don't do backend requests.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the bug:

• Open headlamp app (in dev mode or with compiled app)
• Go to a non home page (eg settings)
• cd plugins/examples/podcounter/ && npm i && npm start
• Note how the app doesn't reload
• Make a change to plugin, note how it doesn't reload

Environment (please provide info about your environment):

WSL ubuntu, running the app

This also affects backend lists of clusters I think. Similar problem.

Headlamp caches plugins in the ~/.config/Headlamp/plugins directory, which means that even if you modify the source code, it continues to use the previously built version instead of automatically updating. Additionally, Vite’s hot reloading doesn’t work in this setup because Headlamp isn't monitoring changes in the dist/ folder where the plugin is built. As a result, any updates to the plugin require manually deleting the cached version and restarting Headlamp to see the changes.

I can work on this issue..
