Support for never return type (PHP 8.1+) about kahlan HOT 5 CLOSED

The easiest way is replacing "never" with "void" when code is generated until it breaks signature when method overrides parent or it is implementation of the interface :)

If I get it right the never type require an exit() or die() call somehow.
It's possible to handle them with the Quit plugin to return an exception instead of exiting the process.

I added the following in the dev branch to handle the never type.

You should be able to test it by using kahlan/kahlan:dev-dev as dependencies.
Make sure once updated to run kahlan -cc to clear caches so they can be regenerated.

Does that solve the issue you were talking about ?

Thank you for your super fast reply. That patch completely solves the problem.
For accuracy never specifies functions that call exit(), throw an exception or are an infinite loop. All these cases work correctly with this change.
