I don't know why the test is failing, it seems unrelated to the changes and it works when I test locally.

@Chocobozzz , currently this PR doesn't handle multiple parallell installs. The package.json is copied when install process begins, so if there's multiple parallell installations only the last one will be stored in package.json. I propose to move the plugin install/update/uninstall processes to be handled by a job instead. Cons:

a) More stable server. If the server restarts just after an admin has started a plugin installation it won't be aborted.
b) Better UX. Today the user get an error message saying the installation failed when there's a HTTP timeout.

@Chocobozzz Let me know what you think of this draft. If you're positive to the solution I'll fix the broken tests.
