AFAIK 'dnf --help' only lists builtin commands, not plugins. Plugins
are listed on the dnf man page (i.e. there is a fixed set available).

Prior to F41 I used to use both the 'tracer' plugin and the separate
'tracer' command. IIRC the 'needs-restarting' command was an earlier
version of a similar idea, but in F41 we now have 'dnf5-needs-
restarting', which can also be invoked as a plugin (the --needs-
restarting option).

The 'tracer' command does exist in F41, but doesn't work, and there is
apparently no longer a 'tracer' plugin. The needs-restarting plugin
doesn't work either.
