v4: Handling wildcard files correctly

Some build environments and configuration options may lead to the make
variable PLUGIN_HEADERS being too long to be passed as parameters to the
shell `echo` command, leading to a "write error" message when making the
target install-plugin.

The following patch fixes this issue by using the [Make $(sort list)][1]
function instead to remove duplicates from the list of headers. There is
no functional change, the value assigned to the shell variable is the
same.

Tested in production on x86 and armv7 cross-compilation toolchains.
    - The length of the headers variable goes from 80000+ chars to 7500+

Tested with make bootstrap and make check on host-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
    - make bootstrap successful
    - make check fails even before the patch is applied
