Changed

• Updated the version constraints for PHP_CodeSniffer to ^3.13.3 || ^4.0.0 (was ^3.6.2).
• Updated the version constraints for PHPCompatibility to ^10.0.0@dev to benefit from hugely improved issue detection.
  Includes excluding a number of additional error codes from the PHPCompatibility.Constants.NewConstants sniff to allow for polyfilled PHP tokens.
• The PSR12.ControlStructures.BooleanOperatorPlacement will now enforce that boolean operators between two conditions on different lines will always be at the start of the second line.
• The PPSR12.Files.FileHeader.SpacingAfterTagBlock error code (PHPCS 4.0+) has been excluded to allow for file docblocks to directly follow a PHP open tag at the top of a file.
• The PEAR.Commenting.FileComment.DuplicateSinceTag error code has been excluded to allow for @since tags used as a changelog in file docblocks.
• Various housekeeping, including a contribution from @fredden.
