You still need to do "something" if qmlplugindump isn't found. Print a `message(WARNING` and/or `add_feature_info` or something similar.
Right now the code would mark the plugin not found but not tell the user that the reason it was not found is that the helper is missing.

e.g. here kirigami is actually installed but qmlplugindump is not:

   10:45:09  /tmp/t/b 
  $ cmake ..
