Paper Plugins Dependency Format Update (#9160)

* Rework dependency management (WIP)

* Revert "Rework dependency management (WIP)"

This reverts commit e046cd59c68743dc00303b1ab42317bf474abd6a.

* Correctly add soft dependencies to the dependency tree for classloading resolution

* Add support for new dependency config format

* Rebase

* swap load order meaning

* Dependencies should be required by default
