docs(README): warn that the plugins are opinionated 

Several plugins reshape or suppress Kate's defaults (radial takes the right
mouse button, acme rebinds Ctrl+A/E/H/U/W + double-click + mouse chords and
kills X11 primary paste, palette/switch/plumb claim Alt+X/P/G and F2). Add a
callout at the top of 'The plugins' so users enable them deliberately rather
than being surprised.

Each plugin is independent — enable only what you want. Keys shown below are the

> - `palette` and `switch` claim `Alt+X/P/G`; `plumb` claims `F2`.
