Long anticipated, finally here: PHPCompatibility 10.0.0-alpha1 🎉 PHPCompatibility 10.0.0 brings huge improvements in both what is being detected (> 50 new sniffs), as well as the detection accuracy for pre-existing sniffs. Even though still "unstable", it is stable enough for our purposes and the advantages of using it outweigh the disadvantage of it being an unstable version. By setting the `minimum-stability` and `prefer-stable` settings in the `composer.json`, we can ensure that we don't get the `dev-develop` branch, but rather get a `10.0.0` tag, unstable or not. And what with the improved detection, a number of new PHP token constants previously not flagged, are now flagged, so let's ignore them as PHPCS polyfills these.
