Jomsocial can't find jomsocial_rule.xml in plugins
It seems the code for searching for points rule files is not right for plugins.
Code has this:
$pathToScan = array( 0 => 'components',
1 => 'modules',
2 => 'plugins');
And then it loops throgh every item in those paths, searching for the jomsocial_rule.xml file.
This is fine for components and modules: example paths are components/com_community or modules/mod_login
For plugins, this is not fine, though, as they are categorized in type folders. So, the script looks for plugins/pluginname instead of plugin/plugintype/pluginname.
This makes it impossible right now to add new rules via plugins.
