[Koha] Can´t install plugins - no upload button

[David Nind]

The only other things I can think of:
1. Check the permissions and ownership for the directory where the plugins
are uploaded (location set in koha-conf.xml - <pluginsdir>).
2. Check permissions for patron you are using (Koha plugins (plugins); if
the patron you are using is a superlibrarian it should be fine).

Plugins are still a thing, and are working OK for me on main.

Otherwise, I don't have any other suggestions - hopefully others will.
