If it's s plugin, you will also need to tell mysql-test-run how to
instruct the server to load the plugin. This is done by adding an
entry to mysql-test/include/plugin.defs (see the comments in that
file). Then your test needs a <test>-master.opt file with the server
options, see e.g. the test mysql-test/t/plugin_auth-master.opt for an
example.

But if you want this to apply to an existing test suite then I think
you can best do this by adding those --plugin_dir= and --plugin_load=
as additional --mysqld= arguments. You have can multiple --mysqld=
arguments to MTR.
