New Laravel 11 listener discovery and actions

[edalzell]

In Laravel 11, listeners are automatically discovered (https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/events#event-discovery). However I suspect most actions are not in the Listeners folder so won't be discovered and you can't aim the discovery at the Actions folder because it only looks for a handle method with an event typehinted. Many of my actions use the asListener method so that the handle method has something more generic (like a model or data class).

Hoping this kickstarts a discussion on how we might improve this for Laravel 11 and Laravel Actions.

Anyone have ideas?

One thing I can thing of is a PR into Laravel where you can set the method that is looked for, so we could add asListener.

Took a quick look, the PR wouldn't be that bad, to have a configurable method name that's searched for.
