Some simple notes on loading and unloading extensions:
- The load method is called when an extension appears in the extensions block when it wasn't
there in the last compilation
- The unload method is called when an extension is removed from the extensions block
ExtensionManager lifecycle call chart.
In [square brackets] are methods called on the extension manager.
In {curly braces} are the methods called on the class manager of the extension.
Conditions are specified in (parens)
