function hook_plugin_filter_TYPE_alter

Alter the filtering of plugin definitions for a specific plugin type.

TYPE (e.g. "block", "layout") limits hook scope to a plugin type. For example, HOOK_plugin_filter_block_alter() would be invoked by a hook listener which specifies the 'block' plugin list, e.g., BlockLibraryController or ChooseBlockController.

Parameters

\Drupal\Component\Plugin\Definition\PluginDefinitionInterface[]|array[] $definitions: The array of plugin definitions.

mixed[] $extra: An associative array containing additional information provided by the code requesting the filtered definitions.

string $consumer: A string identifying the consumer of these plugin definitions.
