Version 4.5.4 function name conflict

[paymentplugins]

Describe the bug
In version 4.5.4 of this plugin, a new function wc_stripe was added. That function name conflicts with a function of the same name located in the plugin Stripe For WooCommerce

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Download and active Stripe For WooCommerce and WooCommerce Stripe Gateway
2. On the plugin activation page you should see an activation error showing the function name conflict

Expected behavior
N/A

Screenshots
N/A

Environment (please complete the following information):

• WordPress Version 5.5.3
• WooCommerce Version 4.7.0
• Stripe Plugin Version 4.5.4+
• Any other plugins installed: Stripe For WooCommerce

Additional context
If possible, please rename your wc_stripe function to something that does not conflict. I am also looking in to changing my function name but it has been in use since the plugin's creation and so there is a high likely hood that developers have referenced the wc_stripe function in their custom development.

Kind Regards,

Hi Team,

There are quite a few reports of this issue now in the Wordpress.org support threads. I am planning a release today so I'll be updating the function wc_stripe to stripe_wc within my plugin. Please do not use the function name stripe_wc in future releases of your plugin.

There will still be references to the wc_stripe function out in the wild where developers have added custom code to integrate. For that reason I am adding a check where the wc_stripe function will be loaded if your plugin is not active. That means it's still a good idea if you rename your function to something else.

Kind Regards,

I have another customer that I was working with and they got the same issue as reported: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-breaks-website/ however, they did not have Stripe for WooCommerce from paymentplugins installed. The exact error that happens upon activating Stripe:
