/// Executes a plugin command via JSON (args passed as JSON expr).
///
/// # Safety
///
/// This function is unsafe because it dereferences raw pointers as part of the FFI boundary.
/// The caller must ensure:
/// 1. All pointer arguments are valid and point to initialized memory.
/// 2. The memory layout of passed structures matches the expected C-ABI layout.
/// 3. Any pointers returned by this function are managed according to the API's ownership rules.
///
/// # Panics
///
/// This function may panic if the FFI input is malformed, null where not expected,
/// or if internal state synchronization fails (e.g., poisoned locks).
