[Feature Request] Customizable Component Autoloader for Apiato

Overview

Add support for customizable component loading in Apiato framework, allowing developers to have granular control over how framework components, configurations, and database components are loaded.

Current Behavior

Currently, Apiato's core autoloader (AutoLoaderTrait) handles loading of all components with a fixed sequence and limited customization options. Components like configurations, migrations, and providers are loaded automatically with predefined paths and sequences.

Proposed Behavior

Enable developers to:

1. Override default loading sequences
2. Customize component loading paths
3. Implement conditional loading
4. Control database configuration loading
5. Manage provider registration timing

Benefits

• Flexibility: Better control over application bootstrapping
• Performance: Optimize loading by selecting only needed components
• Customization: Easier to adapt to specific project requirements
• Maintainability: Clearer component loading management
• Debugging: Better control over loading sequence helps in troubleshooting

Use Cases

1. Large applications needing custom loading sequences
2. Multi-tenant applications requiring dynamic configuration loading
3. Projects with complex database setups
4. Applications requiring environment-specific component loading
5. Custom provider registration requirements

Impact Consideration

• Backward compatibility with existing Apiato applications
• Performance implications
• Documentation updates needed
• Testing requirements
