Type hinting properties on classes

[i-bajrai]

Hi all,

Link me to an existing discussion I'm duplicating but whats are peoples thoughts around implementing type hints directly to class properties in future versions of Laravel that support php8++?

Reason for asking is the visual clutter around doc blocks I feel should be sunset.

If theres appetite for this would like to start a PR that starts migrating to the new syntax.

For example properties on this class:

https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/8.x/src/Illuminate/Auth/AuthManager.php
