feat(ruleset): modernize class structure and replace legacy commenting sniffs (#9)

- Update ClassStructure to enforce grouping for PHPUnit fixtures and DI methods.
- Disable rigid Squiz commenting sniffs; reliance shifted to Slevomat and types.
- Allow fully qualified global functions and constants in ReferenceUsedNamesOnly.
- Add DisallowVariableVariable and EmptyLinesAroundClassBraces sniffs.
- Relax multi-line method signature constraints and increase namespace spacing.
