Development tool to automate certain parts of the dev cycle.

Automatisations:

- Propose to update dependencies when starting working on the project
- Launch BlackBox proofs when `src`, `proofs`, `fixtures` or `properties` folders are modified
- Launch PHPUnit tests when `src`, `tests` or `fixtures` folders are modified
- Launch Psalm checks (if a `psalm.xml` exists) when `src` folder is modified
- Verify the code style (if a `.php_cs.dist` or `.php-cs-fixer.dist.php` file exists) when `src`, `tests`, `proofs`, `fixtures` or `properties` folders are modified
- Start docker compose when there is a `docker-compose.yml` at the project root
