Description

In #38652, singular capabilities were added for activating and deactivating individual plugins.

The same should be added for other management actions for plugins:

  • edit_plugin (ability to adit plugin via the Plugin Editor)
  • delete_plugin (ability to outright delete the plugin)
  • update_plugin (ability to update a plugin)

Network activation and deactivation will be handled in #42403

  • Keywords has-patch needs-testing added; needs-patch removed

The implementation of 'update_plugin' has been more complex than the others, it would need to be tested further.

Also it needs a second opinion about the creation of the new function wp_get_plugin_updates_disallowed_count() (naming and behavior), and the general behavior (sorry for the typo):
