[Feature] Improve naming, since load-image.js and load-image.min.js are not the same #63

The name of the core library load-image.js is misleading from a Developer Experience perspective (Specially for newcomers or people that is using this library as part of file-upload library).

I suggest to rename the core component as load-image.core.js or some name that distance itself from the load-image.min.js which contains the whole suit of components.

Or the other way around, we could use load-image.full.min.js to put emphasis that this minified version has all the components needed.

I know it's stated on the doc's page, but unless you are contributing directly to this library, it's not as straightforward as I think. Most of the time you use it as part of jQuery-File-Upload library.

If you compare this project with jQuery-File-Upload, there is direct correlation between the core component and it's minified version

Thanks for renaming this file and reminding that I should always host my own scripts. Ha

Seconding what mattsears18 said. Lesson learned the hard way.
