Lazy Loading

Lazy loading is not recommended.

nvim-tree setup is very inexpensive, doing little more than validating and setting configuration. There's no performance benefit for lazy loading.

Lazy loading can be problematic due to the somewhat nondeterministic startup order of plugins, session managers, netrw, "VimEnter" event etc.
