Description
Add a checkbox to the submission page that requires confirmation the submitter is:
- Submitting their own work
- Agrees to follow the developer guidelines
It can link to https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/detailed-plugin-guidelines/ for edification.
Something like...
I confirm this plugin is my own, original, work, and complies to all the <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/detailed-plugin-guidelines/">Plugin Developer Guidelines</a>.
This will act, in part, as a self-protection for people who later argue they didn't agree to the guidelines.

After chatting with others, the wording here might open more questions from some that doesn't quite meet the intention, it might seem nitpicky, but when being overly explicit it seems worth it.
I went with a more generic text on the Themes upload page:
Perhaps for consistency we can just tweak that for plugins a little?
