PSR-4 support

This migration forced the project to change all the file naming rules to follow the PSR-4 standard and also a custom way to initialize the classes.
In previous version was required to change manually the https://github.com/WPBP/WordPress-Plugin-Boilerplate-Powered/blob/master/plugin-name/engine/Initialize.php to define the class to load by case (admin/frontend/cli/etc), instead now use the composer autoload to load them if the autoload was optimized (composer dumpautoload -o) otherwise does a scan of the directories to autoload them.

Sadly PHP compared to other languages doesn't scan the folders on his own but require a hand to achieve it.
This system is easy to expand as because auto scan also subdirectories so based on the needs you can create all the folders as namespace that you need.

Why not a src folder?

Honestly as WP plugin based on our needs and feedback there wasn't this need because the basic folders are already defined, anyway as this is a boilerplate it is possible to change and altering as you wish (or start a discussion to implement it).

Wiki

We are keep improving the wiki https://wpbp.github.io/wiki.html with new stuff but we are opened to any new idea or suggestion -> https://github.com/WPBP/wpbp.github.io
