Jsonpath Laravel Package

• Added opt-in JSONPath::RFC9535 mode with full standard query parsing, eager type validation, Unicode and escaped member names, mixed selector unions, and RFC filter and slice semantics. Existing calls retain their previous behavior.
• Added findPaths() for normalized RFC result paths, including ordered duplicate matches.
• Integrated all 715 cases from the pinned JSONPath compliance suite, checking values and normalized paths together and rejecting invalid queries independently of document contents.
• Kept the original compatibility tests and added regression coverage for mode isolation, nested absolute queries, and JSON value comparisons.
• CI now enforces 100% coverage, and PHP CS Fixer is the sole code style tool.

• Added the RFC 9535 length(), count(), match(), search(), and value() function extensions.
• Added a dedicated expression parser and static type checker for function expressions; malformed and ill-typed expressions are rejected without evaluating user-controlled PHP code.
• Added checked RFC 9485 I-Regexp support for full-string and substring matching, with PCRE resource limits.

Fixed tokenizer handling for quoted bracket keys containing $ so literals like ['[$the.size$]'] remain atomic and do not split into root tokens.

• Aligned the query runner and lexer with the JSONPath comparison suite: JSON documents are now decoded as objects to preserve {} vs [], unsupported selectors no longer abort the runner, and dot-notation now accepts quoted keys with dots/spaces/leading @.
• Hardened filter parsing: boolean-only filters (?(true|false|null)), literal short-circuiting (&& false, || true), and empty filters now return the expected collections instead of throwing.
• Slice filters gracefully skip non-countable objects.

Version 1.0.0 is finally here!

• Rebuilt the test suite from scratch: removed bulky baseline fixtures and added compact unit/integration coverage for every filter (index, union, query, recursive, slice), lexer edge cases, and JSONPath core helpers. Runs reflection-free and deprecation-free.
• Achieved and enforced 100% code coverage across AccessHelper, all filters, lexer, tokens, and JSONPath core while keeping phpstan and coding standards clean.
• Added a lightweight manual query runner with curated examples to exercise selectors quickly without external datasets.
• Major compatibility push toward the unofficial JSONPath standard: unions support slices/queries/wildcards, trailing commas parse correctly, negative indexes and bracket-escaped keys (quotes, brackets, wildcards, special chars) are honored, filters compare path-to-path and root references, equality/deep-equality/regex/in/nin semantics align with expectations, and null existence/value handling follows RFC behavior.
• New feature highlights from this cycle:
  • Multi-key unions with and without quotes: $[name,year] and $["name","year"].
  • Robust bracket notation for special/escaped keys, including ']', '*', $, backslashes, and mixed punctuation.
  • Trailing comma support in unions/slices (e.g. $..books[0,1,2,]).
  • Negative index handling aligned with spec (short arrays return empty; -1 works where valid).
  • Filter improvements: path-to-path/root comparisons, deep equality across scalars/objects/arrays/null/empties, regex matching, in/nin/!in, tautological expressions, and ?@ existence behavior per RFC.
  • Unions combining slices/queries/wildcards now return complete results (e.g. $[1:3,4], $[*,1]).

🔻 Breaking changes ahead:

• Dropped support for PHP < 8.5
• JSONPathToken now uses a TokenType enum and the constructor signature changed accordingly.
• JSONPath options flag is now an int bitmask (was bool), requiring callers to pass integer flags.
• SliceFilter returns an empty result for non-positive step values (previously iterated indefinitely).
• QueryResultFilter now throws a JSONPathException for unsupported operators instead of silently proceeding.
• Access helper behavior is stricter: arrayValues throws on invalid types; ArrayAccess lookups check offsetExists before reading; traversables and objects are handled distinctly.
• Adopted PHP 8.5 features: TokenType enum, readonly value object for tokens, typed flags/options, and #[\Override] usage.
• CI now runs on PHP 8.5 with required extensions; code style workflow updated accordingly.
• Added coverage for AccessHelper edge cases (magic getters, ArrayAccess, traversables, negative indexes), QueryResultFilter arithmetic branches, and SliceFilter negative/null bounds.
• Fixed empty-expression handling in lexer and improved safety in AccessHelper traversable lookups.
• Added PHPStan static analysis to the toolchain and addressed its findings.
