Comment (by schlessera):

 I refactored the persistence code. Recorded errors are now stored in the
 database. To avoid filling up the database, I added automatic pruning that
 get rids of any records that are not active plugins.

 The recorded error message is now shown in the plugin list. Not sure
 whether that's a good or a bad thing, but it definitely needs better
 styling at the very least. I had planned to make the error display
 collapsible to not scare away users immediately, but decided to skip
 introducing JS code for now.

 The plugin list is now filterable by `'paused'` status, and the admin
 notice will bring users automatically to a filtered view of the plugin
 list. This helps find the problem right away on sites that have multiple
 pages of plugins.
