Plugin installation help

Couple of questions regarding installation.

Firstly my plugin does install, but because it generates a custom.conf
file and adds a processor into the pipeline it can take multiple
restarts to get it fully operational once it is installed. This seems to
be because it is waiting for any players to stop playing before
completing the install, and with some streams like Qobuz the player
carries on until the track has finished, which maybe longer than the
reboot. (sorry for my ramblings).

Is there a way to programmatically force players to stop, or is this a
bad idea?

I have my plugin installing off my own git repository - with a
plugin.xml file that has an SHA pointing to it. 

What do I need to do to make my available as an official plugin? I saw
some posts about this a while back, but not sure what the answers meant
or if they are still relevant.
