Title: Make locate_template() method public

Template parts have to follow a specific naming pattern when using `get_template_part()`, while `locate_template()` isn't concerned with the template names. For instance, it might be necessary to use a convention similar to the WordPress Template Hierarchy:

* category-slug.php
* category-id.php
* archive.php
* index.php

Another application that can't be achieved with `get_template_part()` is searching for templates that don't use a `.php` extension.
