[bug]: Adding zsh-eza without eza installed prevents zsh startup

[jeffqg]

Environment

Ubuntu 23.10

Reproduction steps

1. Do not install eza yet.
2. Add z-shell/zsh-eza to your zsh plugins. For example, with antidode: `echo "z-shell/zsh-eza" >> .zsh_plugins.txt`
3. Run zsh

Expected behavior

4. zsh-eza prints an error message, but leaves zsh running

Current behavior

4. zsh-eza prints an error message and zsh exits

Code snippet

# .zshrc
source $HOME/dotfiles-packages/antidote/antidote.zsh
antidote load $HOME/.zsh_plugins.txt

# .zsh_plugins.txt
z-shell/zsh-eza

Additional information

If exec zsh is used in step 3 above in a login shell or over ssh, this will quit the shell and prevent login/ssh without working around a user's default shell.
