bevy_dynamic_plugin: fix unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn lint (#11622)
# Objective

- Part of #11590.

## Solution

- Fix `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` for `bevy_dynamic_plugin`.

---

## Changelog

- Added further restrictions to the safety requirements of
`bevy_dynamic_plugin::dynamically_load_plugin`.

---

I had a few issues, specifically with the safety comment on
`dynamically_load_plugin`. There are three different unsafe functions
called within the function body, and they all need their own
justification / message.

Also, would it be unsound to call `dynamically_load_plugin` multiple
times on the same file? I feel the documentation needs to be more clear.
