Plugin refactor

[JulienMelissas]

Hey all!

This weekend when working on the plugin I realized we've got a pretty major thing that could keep people from contributing or fixing existing issues easily: an 8000+ line plugin file.

I just wanted to put this here to get the conversation started! I'm thinking pulling the existing plugin code apart into a few major class files could really help.

This isn't a huge priority, but would definitely be nice. Things like this tend to introduce unexpected bugs if they're not tested really well, though, so it'd probably be good to just start with just 1 PR for a medium-sized chunk, and get some others involved to test.

The bi-weekly bug scrubs in #meta-wordcamp on Slack would be a good place to recruit some people to help test.

I'll try this one out. It will be a good opportunity to explore the codebase and help solve some bugs perhaps.
