Sorry if this is wrong, but no one has mentioned the REAL problem here. 
If a certain plugin/input/output on a track is an invalid combination,
Ardour should not even let you insert that plugin at the time of the
insert attempt, let alone save it.

In other words, why code to catch the invalid combination on session
load?  Just try to make sure the user can never do it, then you won't
have to worry about it.
