Comment:

 * Backwards incompatible change
 * The function returns data relative to `WP_PLUGINS_DIR`, or, optionally,
 relative to `WP_PLUGINS_DIR/$folder` in the event one is passed

 Anyone calling it with a folder name will know the prefix if they require
 it for something.

 Closing as wontfix for now, but if someone can come up with an actual use-
 case we can re-evaluate it, I can think of no reason why a change here is
 needed.
