We want to release version 3.0 as fresh as possible, without having to
maintain backward compatibility with the previous versions.

Because of how the validation engine works now [1], there's no reason to
keep adding names to each rule. Instead, create a single rule that
handles naming rules with a few other accessories. This change is not
necessarily simple, but it shrinks the `Rule` interface, and it's more
aligned with how the library works right now.
Personally, I think this API is much more straightforward than the
`setName()` method, as it's way more explicit about which rule we're
naming. Because of this change, the behaviour changed slightly, but it's
for the best.
Because of this change, I managed to remove a lot of code, but
unfortunately, it's quite a big-bang commit. It would be too complicated
to make it atomic since names are an intrinsic part of the library.

Because of how the validation engine works, there's no reason to keep
adding templates to each rule. Instead, creating a single rule that
handles templating rules will simplify the library greatly and shrink
the `Rule` interface.
Personally, I think this API is much more straightforward than the
`setTemplate()` method, as it's way more explicit which rule is being
templated.
Besides the interface's name, everything already calls this type "Rule",
not "Validatable." This commit puts a stone on it and renames the
interface for better naming.
That helps organize the code better, making it easier to spot the core
rule. It also helps not allow the Factory to load those rules, as the
new namespace is not registered in it.
Note that the "AbstractAge", "AbstractRelated", and "AbstractRule" were
not moved. I want to do that only when I refactor them.
After I moved classes, I realized that "Comparison" and "FilteredString"
had no tests. I created the tests, and while I did that, I spotted two
bugs:
* The "Equals" rule was failing when comparing non-scalar wth scalar
values;
* The "Equals" and "Identical" rules were not working correctly because
"Comparison" was converting their values.
I fixed those bugs in this commit.
