Description

Extending the support range for PHP to support ~8.0

Fixes #24

Hmm, I think this error is because CI didn't run in a while, and composer/composer:2.3.x broke BC here.

config.allow-plugins is missing here: a local composer install will highlight that.

🤔 ok, now that's where the mess starts: PHP 8.0 and 8.1 don't cleanly install at all?

Nothing to do with your work, heh.

I see that laminas/laminas-hydrator support could be expanded to ^4 perhaps: ^3 is really really old. That would get rid of some of these composer issues: also here, I recommend a conservative composer update nothing

There also looked to be a conflict with the laminas coding standard library so I went ahead and updated that too. Hopefully that wont pose any issues?

Ah I found another PR that addresses some of the issues going on here #23. The PR is still open so maybe there's some outstanding issues with the dependencies?

Looks like laminas-api-tools/api-tools-doctrine only supports until PHP 8.0 so something similar would need to be done there to extend it to 8.1 (If it doesn't break other packages in the process) and the PHP 8.1 tests would pass here once that package has been updated to support 8.1 as well.

I'm not so sure about the PHP 8.0 tests since there are issues with the phpro/zf-doctrine-hydration-module dependency and that only supports up until PHP ^7.0
