when autostart is true, localstack tries to start docker container even when stage is not supported/enabled for localstack

custom.localstack.autostart is set to true and custom.localstack.stages is set ['local'].

Ideally with this config, localstack should only attempt to autostart the docker container when the stage i am deploying to is included in custom.localstack.stages. But that is not the case, localstack always tries to start the container whether the plugin is enabled for the stage or not.

I think their should be a check to see if localstack is enabled for the stage or not before attempting to autostart

My setup does not have autostart set to true, But despite that even when the stage is not local, Localstack is running at the time of deployment for version 0.4.32, and I get the following error

$ /codebuild/output/src743868393/src/node_modules/.bin/sls deploy -v

With the versions mentioned below, everything works as expected.

"serverless": "2.48.0"
"serverless-localstack": "0.4.28"
"serverless-webpack": "5.5.1"
