SimpleStatus not detected on start in carbon

Hey there,

I recently switched over from oxide to carbon, and that went pretty painless. However there seems to be a small race condition between SimplePVE and SimpleStatus, where SimplePVE does not detect the other plugin. Hence if you want to see the PVE status it is necessary to restart SimplePVE after the server started.

I'm wondering whether it is possible to add some kind of retry mechanism which tries to find SimpleStatus at least for a short while. It seems if SimplePVE starts before SimpleStatus is loaded, the latter won't be found and SimplePVE will resort to running without any status information. This can only be helped by restarting SimplePVE once after the server started.

I never saw this problem with oxide.
