Before this patch, a broken symlink would print a warning;
docker info > /dev/null
WARNING: Plugin "/Users/thajeztah/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-feedback" is not valid: failed to fetch metadata: fork/exec /Users/thajeztah/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-feedback: no such file or directory
After this patch, such symlinks are ignored:
docker info > /dev/null
With debug enabled, we don't ignore the faulty plugin, which will
make the warning shown on docker info;
mkdir -p ~/.docker/cli-plugins
ln -s nosuchplugin ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-brokenplugin
docker --debug info

We should als consider passing a "seen" map to de-duplicate entries.
Entries can be either a direct symlink or in a symlinked path (for
which we can filepath.EvalSymlinks). We need to benchmark the overhead
of resolving the symlink vs possibly calling the plugin (to get their
metadata) further down the line.
