Simplify Elsewhen installation and bar migration
Link the package into the existing plugin directory and let bar put handle enablement, clock-relative placement, and the missing-clock fallback. Preserve user checkouts and existing placements, and seed the same link for new users. This removes the Atreyu packaged-discovery prerequisite and the checkout cleanup and JSON rewrite machinery.

## Elsewhen
|

|

A default plugin can ship as its own Arch package instead of in the Omarchy checkout: Elsewhen (`omacom.elsewhen`) is the `elsewhen` package. pacman installs it at `/usr/share/omarchy/plugins/<id>/`, a root the shell scans between `$OMARCHY_PATH/shell/plugins` and `~/.config/omarchy/plugins`. A packaged `omarchy.*` id is trusted like a bundled plugin and loads by default; any other packaged id behaves like an installed plugin. Precedence is bundled, then packaged, then user, so a checkout under `omarchy dev link` overrides the package. Packaged plugins update through `omarchy update` and leave through pacman; `omarchy plugin update` and `omarchy plugin remove` refuse them and name the package, and Setup › Plugins › Remove does not list them.
|
||||
Elsewhen (`omacom.elsewhen`) ships in the `elsewhen` package at `/usr/share/omarchy/plugins/omacom.elsewhen`. A symlink in `~/.config/omarchy/plugins/` makes it available to the shell. New installs place it immediately before the clock; the migration uses `omarchy bar put omacom.elsewhen --before omarchy.clock`, which preserves an existing placement and uses Elsewhen's normal right-side placement if the clock is absent. Existing plugin directories and symlinks are left intact.
