Code change you can make to align with PHP 7.4

These are the changes to align with PHP 7.4 that I see.

Just one test fails:
• MichaelRubel\Formatters\Tests\FormatterBindingsTest > string bindings with camel case is forbidden
Failed asserting that exception of type "Illuminate\Contracts\Container\BindingResolutionException" matches expected exception "MichaelRubel\Formatters\Exceptions\ShouldNotUseCamelCaseException". Message was: "Unresolvable dependency resolving [Parameter #0 [ $time ]] in class DateTime" at
V:\sys\laragon\www\laravel-formatters\vendor\laravel\framework\src\Illuminate\Container\Container.php:1108

PHP 7.4 breaks the package bindings. The test with exception fails because it cannot find a proper binding for the formatter, and the bindings themselves aren't available since I've used PHP 8's str_contains for matching the formatter class.

You can dig deeper to fix it, or I can look into it later when I have time. I think I should add direct tests for this particular case. The case is actually covered by another test but it isn't that clear for those who're receiving these fails.

Anyway, I don't have PHP 7.4 installed on any desktop/server, so I'm still considering if it is worth supporting it. Most people I'm working with already moving/moved to PHP 8.x since it was quite an improvement for the language.

It's possible a polyfill for PHP 7, safe to utilize with PHP 8.
But I think you're right, it's time to moving forward.
Thank you for your time.

<?php
if (!function_exists('str_contains')) {
    function str_contains (string $haystack, string $needle)
    {
        return empty($needle) || strpos($haystack, $needle) !== false;
    }
}
...

Thank you for the pull request anyway!
I think all my packages will stay as encouragement for people to upgrade PHP to at least 8.0 if not done yet. :)
