--------------------------+-----------------------------
 Add a return statement in `wp_slash()` to prevent unnecessary execution.

 **Optimization Changes:**
 - Directly return the processed array using `array_map()` to avoid
 redundant execution.
 - Ensured early returns to prevent unnecessary checks for string values.

 **Performance Impact:**
 - Eliminates redundant variable assignments.
 - Prevents unnecessary execution of string checks when `$value` is an
 array.
 - Improves function efficiency while maintaining expected behavior.
