Improved autoloader and file inclusion handling

[girishpanchal30]

Summary

Updated the autoloader logic to skip classes whose files are unavailable instead of fatally failing the request. This change ensures that if a class file cannot be opened (due to reasons like file permissions, missing files, etc.).

autoloader.php:156

• Returning false here does not prevent the reported frontend fatal in the linked Elementor Booster path. The issue states that Module::register_widgets() directly instantiates every configured widget; after this autoloader declines the missing Flip_Card file, that new expression will still throw an uncaught “Class not found” error. The caller must check that the widget class exists before instantiation (or otherwise handle the failed lookup), and an integration test should exercise that actual registration path rather than only calling load_class() directly.
