Emacs: automatically require plugins?

[strager]

I tried out the four Emacs plugins. The installation process was a bit more annoying than it should be IMO.

• Flycheck has a flycheck-verify-setup which lists various linters. quick-lint-js does not appear in this list until you add (require 'flycheck-quicklintjs) to your ~/.emacs.
• The other plugins also need (require ...) in ~/.emacs. Some plugins need other stuff too, so this isn't so bad. But the LSP Mode and Elgot plugins work out of the box with just (require ...).

For system-installed quick-lint-js, is it possible to auto-require to make installation easier?
