Add an filter to assign membership immediately

[dparker1005]

Some sites don't want users to have to wait until the first check is received to get membership access.

Leaving a note for anyone else that this gist by @dparker1005 provides a current solution to the issue above.

/**
 * Unhooks using the custom Check gateway class in the PMPro PBC plugin.
 *
 * This removes the "delayed checkout" functionality and gives users membership
 * access immediately after checkout. This is not typically reccomended as it is
 * not compatible with many PMPro Add Ons.
 *
 * This code recipe also may not be supported in future versions of PMPro Pay By Check.
 * Use this code recipe at your own risk.
 *
 * You can add this recipe to your site by creating a custom plugin
 * or using the Code Snippets plugin available for free in the WordPress repository.
 * Read this companion article for step-by-step directions on either method.

I have also put together a code snippet here that will allow users to access restricted content for a level when they have a pending order for that level: https://github.com/strangerstudios/pmpro-snippets-library/pull/203

Note that the level still won't actually be given until the check is received. This code recipe will only allow access when the “Requires Membership” checkbox is checked for a page/post, not in situations where individual blocks are restricted for example.
