This PR removes an incorrect reference to ros2 plugin list in the Pluginlib beginner tutorial.
ROS 2 Jazzy does not provide a CLI command to list plugins; plugins are discovered via plugin XML descriptors registered with the ament index.
This change prevents confusion for new ROS 2 users following the Jazzy documentation.

note: not for rolling

I believe the command is available in Jazzy, you might need to install manually at the moment:

apt install ros-jazzy-ros2plugin

Hello @mini-1235,

Thanks for sharing me the command now it works in my workspace, this was not mentioned in the docs plugins page so shall I give instruction to first install the cli command with 'apt install ros-jazzy-ros2plugin' and then do 'ros2 plugin list'

Regards,
Rohit

I have a PR here merged a few weeks ago: ros2/ros2cli_common_extensions#15, so this should be automatically installed along with other cli packages after next Jazzy's release
