Should this be --disable-plugin <plugin-name> rather than synthesizing 
an option?

Also would I be correct to say anarchy such as `jlink 
--disable-generate-jli-classes --generate-jli-classes` would actually 
run the plugin? Related is whether it's warning or fatal when an unknown 
plugin is specified.
