This partially reverts f011fe9, i.e. makes the plasmagun behave as in the original Quake III. That commit refers to "Bug 5066", but it's not clear where the bug tracker is, and what was the discussion behind that. The plasmagun explosion on body (flesh) hit makes quite a big difference gameplay-wise, due to its visibility impact, you cannot see the player being hit too well. For reference, in Quake Live the plasmagun also doesn't make its original explosion effect on body hit, but BFG does. So this commit also hopefully brings the behavior in line with the intent of the Quake III authors.
