Issue body
Snapcraft 7.0.4 can't build the Juju snap. It was working fine on snapcraft 6.1:
https://github.com/juju/juju/runs/6872942700?check_suite_focus=true#step:2:20
but on 7.0.4, it can't find the local plugin "juju-go":
https://github.com/juju/juju/runs/6891777719?check_suite_focus=true
We get the error
```
Failed to load plugin: unknown plugin: 'juju-go'
```
This plugin is stored at /snap/plugins/juju_go.py` in our source tree, and snapcraft 6.1 had no trouble finding it.
