Description (*)

This PR removes the laminas/laminas-dependency-plugin composer plugin.
The plugin was introduced in #26436 and its purpose is described as follows on their homepage:

This Composer plugin, when enabled in a project, intercepts requests to install packages from the zendframework and zfcampus vendors, and will replace them with the equivalents from the Laminas Project.

Reason why I think we should get rid of this, is that I'm currently unable to use a modern version of composer to install dependencies on the 2.4-develop branch:

$ composer --version
Composer version 2.4.4 2022-10-27 14:39:29

$ composer install
Installing dependencies from lock file (including require-dev)
Verifying lock file contents can be installed on current platform.
In Laminas\DependencyPlugin\DependencyRewriterV2::onPrePoolCreate
Your lock file does not contain a compatible set of packages. Please run composer update.

  Problem 1
    - laminas/laminas-dependency-plugin is locked to version 2.5.0 and an update of this package was not requested.
    - laminas/laminas-dependency-plugin 2.5.0 requires composer-plugin-api >=1.1.0 <2.3.0 -> found composer-plugin-api[2.3.0] but it does not match the constraint.

Which was a restriction added to that plugin in laminas/laminas-dependency-plugin@54d508a

I believe that after 2 years since Magento switched from Zend to Laminas, that this plugin is not really necessary anymore, most people will have gotten used to the Laminas components by now and should install those instead of the old Zend ones.
