 We should be able to provide a direct link to the page to install a
 plugin, based on the plugin's slug. This does it: wp-admin/plugin-
 install.php?tab=plugin-information&plugin=log-deprecated-notices. However,
 there's no admin chrome, no real indication which site you're on, and no
 name of the plugin.

 If we're not loading that page inside an iframe request, it needs the
 admin around it, as well as a heading. Probably new styling too.

 This would serve as a replacement for [http://coveredwebservices.com/wp-
 plugin-install/ Jaquith's bookmarklet], which broke in 3.2 (frame
 busting), as well as allow us to integrate a link on extend/plugins for
 plugin installation. Related, #16923, which is now closed.
