Automatic deactivation of dependents with unmet dependencies requires a write operation to the database. This was performed during Core's bootstrap, which risked the database and cache becoming out-of-sync on sites with heavy traffic.
No longer loading plugins that have unmet requirements has not had a final approach decided core-wide, and is still in discussion in #60491 to be handled in a future release.
The `plugin_data` option, used to persistently store plugin data for detecting unmet dependencies during Core's bootstrap, is no longer needed.
Follow-up to [57545], [57592], [57606], [57617].
