There are a few "problems" with the current engine:
- Allowing each rule to execute assert() and check() means duplication
in some cases.
- Because we use exceptions to assert/check, we can only invert a
validation (with Not) if there are errors. That means that we have
limited granularity control.
- There is a lot of logic in the exceptions. That means that even after
it throws an exception, something could still happen. We're stable on
that front, but I want to simplify them. Besides, debugging exception
code is painful because the stack trace does not go beyond the
exception.
Apart from that, there are many limitations with templating, and working
that out in the current implementation makes it much harder.
These changes will improve the library in many aspects, but they will
also change the behavior and break backward compatibility. However,
that's a price I'm willing to pay for the improvements we'll have.

This change will bring many breaking changes. The good thing is that we
can finally use more modern resources available in PHP.
I can imagine that's not a popular change since it will bring many
breaking changes to users, but we shouldn't be stuck in time because of
that. Using some of those features will make it easier to contribute to
the project. At least, I hope so.
There are still some useless doc-blocks, and we're not using "readonly"
properties when we could. I aim to send those changes soon.

From PHPUnit 10, all data providers need to be static. This commit will
make migrating from version 9 to 10 a bit easier.

We can use the AlwaysValid and AlwaysInvalid rules in the tests instead
of mocking them. Those changes will help us later because we mainly use
the `createValidatableMock()` in the data providers and, as from
PHPUnit 10, all data providers need to be static.

According to the official documentation [1] the correct way of writing
the "inheritDoc" tag is with the uppercase "D".

The tool we used to verify whether the code base has the correct coding
standard was removed [1].
This commit will set up one that works best for us and will also make
sure we have fully compliant to PS1 and PSR2.

This commit will make sure that every class, interface, or trait will
have the "@author" annotation in it.
In order to create a list of authors, I used the "git blame" command,
which means that if someone changed or even created the file but does
not have any remaining line will not be shown in the list; it's a
trade-off worth but it is worth it. The other way to do it would be
carefully checking each file.

- Add documentation to the class and its methods;
- Move RuleTestCase to Test namespace;
- Use PHP 7 type hinting;
- Rename getRuleMock() to createValidatableMock().
Many changes were made on `ValidationException::stringify`:
- Add support for instances of `Exception`;
- Add support for instances of `Traversable`;
- Add support for resources;
- Improve `Array` conversion;
- Improve `Object` conversion;
- Improve conversion of all values by using JSON.
Now, all the parameters of the exception classes are just converted to
string when replacing parameters on exceptions, so the exception classes
now keep the original value of all parameters.
