AutoRestore AJAX Automation for WP 4.6 Shiny Updates

Additional Info|WP Backward|Forward Compatibility: AutoRestore AJAX Automation
BPS Pro 12 uses AJAX to detect plugin, theme and WP Core Shiny updates and installations. This allows for improved seamless ARQ Automation when updating or installing plugins, themes and WP Core updates. The ARQ AJAX Automation code in BPS Pro 12 is conditional to WP 4.6+. If you have an older WP version installed then older BPS Pro ARQ Automation will be used instead of the new ARQ AJAX Automation. WP Trivia Fact: There are 21 different ways to update or install plugins, themes and WP Core. If you count Network|Multisite separately then there are 35 different ways to update or install plugins, themes and WP Core.

Dev Note: AutoRestore AJAX Automation: ARQ AJAX shutdown time is 15 seconds for individual plugin and theme updates and installations. This creates a 15 second buffer window for scenarios where several individual plugin or theme updates or installations might be performed in succession. The ARQ AJAX shutdown time of 15 seconds is reset in this type of scenario so that the ARQ file backup and ARQ Turn On does not occur until all plugin or theme updates or installations are completed in this particular type of scenario. For Plugin and/or Theme Bulk Updates and new Theme installations the BPS Pro AutoRestore (ARQ) Automatic Shutdown & Backup Notice is displayed, which requires one-click to complete ARQ file backup and ARQ Turn On. WP Shiny Updates and WP Automatic Updates are 2 completely different things. AutoRestore AJAX Automation handles WP Shiny Updates and AutoRestore Automation for WP Automatic Updates (Core, Plugins and Themes) is handled by using WP upgrader_pre_install and upgrader_post_install filters and additional automation methods.

Themes Add New|Add Themes page: theme-install.php
All Theme installation methods on the theme-install.php page use One-Click ARQ Automation: BPS Pro AutoRestore (ARQ) Automatic Shutdown & Backup Notice is displayed. Requires one-click to complete ARQ File Backup & ARQ Turn On. Currently there are too many variations in Theme installation methods/code/etc., complications and potential problems that could occur by trying to use Seamless ARQ Automation on any of the theme-install.php page installation links or buttons. Theme installation is not a regular or ongoing action and is typically a rare or one-time event so Seamless ARQ Automation is not really necessary for Theme installations.
Dev Note: ARQ AJAX Automation is conditional for Theme installations. If ARQ is monitoring the themes folder/files then ARQ AJAX Automation will be used. If ARQ is not monitoring the themes folder/files then ARQ AJAX Automation will not be used since new installed Theme files do not need to be backed up. The condition is an explicit match (exact match) for ARQ folder exclude rule: themes.

The conditions are explicit matches (exact matches) for ARQ folder exclude rules: plugins and/or themes.
