test(plugins): report nested metadata paths in validation errors #2164

[Rakshak05]

Description

This PR fixes issue #2164 by adding focused metadata fixtures and unit tests for plugin validation errors within nested objects and lists. It enhances PluginMetadataValidator to ensure precise JSON path reporting for nested structures and array elements, including:

• Option element indexes for select and multiselect fields (fields[{i}].options[{j}])
• Mutually exclusive validation rule element indexes (validation.{key}.mutually_exclusive[{j}])
• Python package dependency array element indexes (dependencies.python_packages[{i}])
