Plugin Directory: List pending plugins on 'add' page

[Ipstenu]

It would be nice to see the statuses of submitted plugins on the ADD page. This may help people stop submitting the same one multiple times when they've missed emails.

Example (below the Blue Box of X plugins waiting review)

Yellow Box: You have X plugins in the review queue, Y are being actively reviewed.

• Plugin 1 - Awaiting Review
• Plugin 2 - Being Reviewed

Please wait at least 7 business days before asking for an update status from plugins@…

X is how many plugins YOU own that are draft & pending.

Y is how many plugins are in PENDING.

2594.patch​ implements the feature and fixes _n() usage for the existing string while we're at it.

Can we make use of WP_Query in get_submitted_plugins() rather than using direct SQL?

That was my initial attempt, but it didn't work due to Plugin_Directory::pre_get_posts() altering the same query. Maybe it should bail early if not $wp_query->is_main_query()? I'm not sure how that affects the API or other parts.

2594.3.patch​ does that and switches Upload::get_submitted_plugins() to get_posts().

The same issue now happens in #2787, see comment:7:ticket:2787.
