+- Controller name extractor now uses greedy search of namespace items with "controller(s)" postfix. For example, for controller namespace `App\AllControllers\MyController\FooBar\BazController` previously,
+  result was "controller/foo-bar/baz", now it is "foo-bar/baz". You can use `ViewRenderer::withControllerName()`
+  instead of `ViewRenderer::withController()` to explicitly define controller name.
