Bug Report Description

After a plugin is updated, the plugin order is succesfully restored to the order it should be, but then after the steam client is restarted or if decky is restarted, the updated plugins move to the bottom. If the order is manually changed before the client restarts, it'll work fine.

The frontend has the correct order, but the backend does not. When a plugin is updated the loader.json's pluginOrder list first loses that plugin from the list and then it appears again at the bottom. This is likely fixable either by putting the same code that fixes the order in the frontend into the backend as well, or just saving the order from the frontend whenever a plugin is updated or possibly removing the code that's incorrectly saving to the loader.json file on a plugin update.

Expected Behaviour

The order should be consistent.
