Rebased it cleanly, without any merge commits. Also wanted to ask a question related to plugins: it's hard-coded that plugins search for a .yaml file for the default configuration. Should .yml files be considered valid as well? |

Accidentally closed this while messing with git rebases, reopening. |

For pip plugins installed in editable mode, via `pip install -e ...`, buildstream failed to resolve the actual location of source files of a plugin. This is caused because `importlib.metadata` does not honor editable packages with `pth` files. This patch updates `pluginoriginpip.py` to use `find_spec` to find files. This works for editable packages.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I moved the importlib import together with the others (inside the function). I don't know whether that's still needed or if it was just something specific to pkg_resources, but it's better to do that in a separate commit/PR.
Let's merge this.
