 currently, plugins can easily affect the core updates screen and add
 additional elements to update for their plugin.

 however, the total update count in the admin left side nav menu is
 hardcoded to only include wp core, theme and plugin available updates. So
 when you visit the core update screen, the count may not agree with the
 available updates since plugins can add their own.

 a simple filter on the count will allow plugins to have their updates show
 in the count.

 patch attached against R18320
