### Streamlink version

6.6.1+2.g61cec0e8

### Description

Streamlink no longer logs anything when a plugin is overridden/sideloaded.
It used to log `[session][debug] Plugin twitch is being overridden by ...`
The code seemingly [still exists](https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/blob/61cec0e88e1a49ee09c39b78fa0396c1da3239ea/src/streamlink/session/plugins.py#L183), but it doesn't get called.

You can see the sideloaded plugin was properly loaded by the log message, but there was no notice by streamlink:
```shell
[hakkin@hakkin-pc ~]$ ls ~/.local/share/streamlink/plugins/
__pycache__  twitch.py
[hakkin@hakkin-pc ~]$ streamlink -o=/dev/null --loglevel=debug --logfile=log.txt https://www.twitch.tv/twitchmedia21 best
...
[plugins.twitch][info] This log is from the overridden plugin!
...
```
