Update Freezing pytest description in simple.rst

@@ -826,15 +826,20 @@ Instead of freezing the pytest runner as a separate executable, you can make
 your frozen program work as the pytest runner by some clever
 argument handling during program startup. This allows you to 
 have a single executable, which is usually more convenient.
+Please note that the mechanism for plugin discovery used by pytest
+(setupttools entry points) doesn't work with frozen executables so pytest
+can't find any third party plugins automatically. To include third party plugins 
+like ``pytest-timeout`` they must be imported explicitly and passed on to pytest.main.
