plugin usage

[Ashish Yadav]

I have quite a few plugins that are installed and some that are marked for an update. How can I tell if a plug-in is still in-use/valid and by which job? I want to remove plugins that are no longer in-use or needed.

This essentially means that it can find usages of plugins that are referenced in job configurations.

Plugins that aren't part of that, e.g. markup formatters (like OWASP Markup Formatter), or plugins providing slave types (e.g. Clouds or SSH Slaves) won't show up as 'used'.
