 New style.css header tag for theme author who submit theme on Market place
 like TF.

 Autoupdate: no

 If WordPress found this tag. this theme should not check and update by
 WordPress. Because this theme does not belong to w.org

 This tag will be only for theme author who submit theme on Market place or
 it is personal theme. so not action require for w.org theme authors.

 Suppose there is a theme called XYZ on market place. right now it is not
 on w.org

 But after some months, XYZ theme also submitted and approved by reviewer,
 then this theme will be show update notice even it is installed form
 market place or manual.

 We know, theme reviewer will not approve XYZ theme on w.org. but only if a
 theme is popular and found on google search result. but what if XYZ theme
 approved same time on Market place and w.org


 if we will add this tag, then theme reviewers do not need to search theme
 slug on google. if theme installed from w.org, it will get auto update. if
 theme installed manually or from Market place, theme user need to update
 it as per theme author guide.
