4.12.0

What a release! Probably to biggest minor release we've ever done!

Some cool highlights:

Disabling optional values

Optional values are great, but sometimes a null value is desirable from now on you can do the following:

class SongData extends Data {
    public function __construct(
        public string $title,
        public string $artist,
        public Optional|null|string $album,
    ) {
    }
}

SongData::factory()
    ->withoutOptionalValues()
    ->from(['title' => 'Never gonna give you up', 'artist' => 'Rick Astley']); // album will `null` instead of `Optional`

Injecting property values

It was already possible to inject a Laravel route parameter when creating a data object, we've now extended this functionality quite a bit and also allow injecting dependencies from the container and the authenticated user.

class SongData extends Data {
    #[FromAuthenticatedUser]
    public UserData $user;
}

Merging manual rules

In the past when the validation rules of a property were manually defined, the automatic validation rules for that property were omitted. From now on, you can define manual validation rules and merge them with the automatically generated validation rules:

```php
#[MergeValidationRules]
class SongData extends Data
{
    public function __construct(
        public string $title,
        public string $artist,
    ) {
    }

    public static function rules(): array
    {
        return [
            'title' => ['max:20'],
            'artist' => ['max:20'],
        ];
    }
}

New property mappers:

We now ship by default a Uppercase and Lowercase mapper for mapping property names.
