Plugin explicit flags (#11581)
# Description
#11492 fixed flags for builtin commands but I missed that plugins don't
use the same `has_flag` that builtins do. This PR addresses this.

Unfortunately this means that return value of `has_flag` needs to change
from `bool` to `Result<bool, ShellError>` to produce an error when
explicit value is not a boolean (just like in case of `has_flag` for
builtin commands. It is not possible to check this in
`EvaluatedCall::try_from_call` because

# User-Facing Changes
Passing explicit values to flags of plugin commands (like `--flag=true`
`--flag=false`) should work now.
BREAKING: changed return value of `EvaluatedCall::has_flag` method from
`bool` to `Result<bool, ShellError>`

# Tests + Formatting
Added tests and updated documentation and examples
