2019-05-07documentation: Cleaned up "plug-in"/"plugin" terminology.Scott Rifenbark
The YP manual set was using the plugin term inconsistently. It was appearing as "plugin" as well as "plug-in". The plugins in the project are all named without a hyphen. The term itself is either/or according to Google. I have changed all references to plugin so that they do not use a hyphen.
