Description

If I install with vundle, things work as expected. But if I install with minpac or natively (see https://github.com/iamcco/markdown-preview.nvim/issues/56) I need to include let g:mkdp_command_for_global = 1 or else I can't do any previews.

After installing via minpac, here are steps to reproduce:

vi test.md
:MarkdownPreview

E492: Not an editor command: MarkdownPreview

If I add let g:mkdp_command_for_global = 1 to .vimrc then it works to preview my test.md file. When installed via vundle I don't need that config and I can't figure out why

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the plugin's initialization code and compare how Vundle and minpac source the plugin. Look for conditions that set `g:mkdp command for global` by default.
