Classic editor as MU Plugin

Hi Pavel,

When you use your plugin(s) in an irregular setup, then I can imagine that some things don’t work.

My plugin uses the is_plugin_active() directive, which is fairly standard practice I think?

I ain’t saying it isn’t would be nice to add “filter” for disabling this feature. Which is 1 line of code to prevent this issue.

And loading plugins inside plugins is not exactly “irregular” setup. I fixed it via this code, so it’s fine for now.

add_filter( 'option_active_plugins', function( $plugins ){
    foreach( (array) debug_backtrace() as $item ) {
        if( array_key_exists( 'function', $item ) && $item['function'] == 'cea_depends_on_ce' ) {
            $plugins[] = 'classic-editor/classic-editor.php';
            break;
        }
    }

    return $plugins;
});

Hi Pavel,

Glad you managed to solve this specific issue by adding a filter and thanks for sharing it so it might help others too.

I will add it to the repo at Github, so it can still be found in the future too.
