Hi there,

Almost every informal conversation I have with a member of the Go team about the plugin package, they tell me to stay away from it for various reasons.

However, the package docs don't mention anything about that: https://pkg.go.dev/plugin

There are projects in the open source that use plugins as a measure of extensibility such as tyk.

Therefore, we should really document that the package should just not be used in any serious/production environments if what I've heard in the past about the plugin package still applies.

Furthermore, it would be great to document what are the reasons/concerns to making the plugin package not production-ready and maybe eventually resolve that as it certainly can be helpful.
