Migrating from cloudscrape-client-php

Github: cloudscrape/cloudscrape-client-php is now dexiio/dexi-php-client, _(*13)

Packagist: cloudscrape/cloudscrape-api-client is now dexiio/dexi-api-client, _(*14)

If you are currently using cloudscrape-client-php, we strongly suggest you upgrade to this library as cloudscrape-client-php has been deprecated and will no longer be developed, and may not be supported in the future. Most method signatures have changed and we have added PSR-4 namespacing and rebranding to the Dexi name, as well as moving to support PHP7. New classes and methods have also been added., _(*15)
