refactor(linter/plugins): rename LoadPluginResult

[overlookmotel]

Pure refactor. Rename PluginLoadResult to LoadPluginResult. The function that returns it is called load_plugin, so this naming makes more sense.

Pull request overview

This PR performs a pure refactor by renaming PluginLoadResult to LoadPluginResult across the linter's external plugin system. The new naming aligns with the established convention where result types follow the VerbNounResult pattern matching their associated function names (e.g., load_plugin → LoadPluginResult, similar to lint_file → LintFileResult).

• Renamed the enum type from PluginLoadResult to LoadPluginResult
• Updated all imports and usages across the crates
• Maintained consistency with existing naming patterns
