I do not think that there is a way to guarantee this.  After all
plugins, by design, are intended to be optional.

Obviously if a build system is involved - one that is adding the
--record-libdeps option when creating libraries - then it will be
able to add the necessary linker command line option to invoke
the plugin as well.

Cheers
