Remove max php version from composer.json

[xPaw]

$ composer require --dev vimeo/psalm
Cannot use vimeo/psalm's latest version 6.13.1 as it requires php ~8.1.31 || ~8.2.27 || ~8.3.16 || ~8.4.3 which is not satisfied by your platform.

I use alpha PHP versions locally for testing (PHP 8.5), so when I tried installing psalm, composer just installed version 0.3 which is really wack behavior of composer to be honest. Adding --ignore-platform-reqs of course installs the latest version.

Hey @xPaw, can you reproduce the issue on https://psalm.dev? These will be used as phpunit tests when implementing the feature or fixing this bug.

Psalm is not yet tested with PHP 8.5. We can't guarantee it's working properly so there's no reason to allow installation for it yet.

You're using the --ignore-platform-reqs in a correct way here.

If you do find any issue or if you wish to push a PR adding tests for PHP 8.5 and showing it works, it would be appreciated :)

Note that composer is behaving perfectly correctly. There must have been a time long ago when Psalm's constraints allowed PHP 8.5. This was a mistake, if it wasn't made, Composer would have correctly told you Psalm couldn't be installed at all

I feel like this would be better as a runtime warning (CS fixer does this), otherwise getting a version from 2017 installed is silly.

I dont use 8.5 features, just the the runtime to test my own code.

To prevent installation of old versions, you can add the constraint:

composer require --ignore-platform-reqs --dev vimeo/psalm:^6
