The disabled plugins are listed in the `install_plugins` table of the `PackerInstall` command

[NTBBloodbath]

• nvim --version: NVIM v0.5.0-dev+1326-ge0a01bdf7
• git --version: git version 2.31.1
• Operating system/version: Fedora 34
• Terminal name/version: kitty 0.20.3

Steps to reproduce

• Create a conditionally disabled plugins using a table with the names of the plugins
• Check if the name of the plugin exists in that table and store the boolean result in a variable
• Use that variable as the disable field value

Actual behaviour

• When running PackerInstall with disabled plugins the packer window is open with nothing to install if there's nothing to install

Expected behaviour

• When running PackerInstall the packer window should not be opened if there's nothing to install and there are disabled plugins

packer files

Plugin specification file(s)

Example to reproduce the bug: ```lua local disabled_plugins = {'emmet'} local function has_value(tabl, val) for _, value in ipairs(tabl) do if value == val then return true end end return false end local disabled_emmet = has_value(disabled_plugins, 'emmet') return require('packer').startup(function() use { 'mattn/emmet-vim', disable = disabled_emmet, } end) ```

Thanks for the report! This looks like an error where we open the display window if there are any missing plugins before checking if plugins are disabled.

Per my comment on #362, closing this for now.
