    networkAgent: Drop VPN plugin cache
    
    libnm doesn't only search for plugins in the regular VPN plugin directory,
    but also in the legacy location and the directory pointed to by the
    NM_VPN_PLUGIN_DIR environment variable (if set).
    
    We don't monitor the additional directories, so it's possible for our cache
    to become outdated.
    
    Instead of trying to play catch-up with libnm's internals, do what nm-applet
    does and use the appropriate API to look up the plugin on each request.
