Problem
Kap currently uses npms to index community plugins but it appears the project and its API are abandoned since around 2023. This means that new community plugins aren't being indexed or shown in Kap's plugin list since then, and existing plugins' versions aren't being updated. It's very broken. And it's one of Kap's best features!
Solution
This PR fixes the issue and restores community plugins(!) by using npmjs' registry to index plugins instead. I've tested and confirmed the change works with the kap plugin I'm currently building, kap-share. I can't wait to share it (plz merge 🤞)!
