It looks like the database to which you restored already had plpgsql
in place.  The error just states that.  So, I don't think there is any
problem and you can assume that you got your database restored.

It means you added the language to the new database before you started your
restore. It's not a problem.

This doesn't look like a problem --- you just tried to restore into a
database that already had plpgsql set up.  It should have kept going
just fine.
