Full changelog: 4.8.10...4.9.0

• [bug] No user-agent has been set #946
• added docker-compose.yml with images: setup (composer), runUnitTests, runPerfTests, runLinting, generateModel

• added optional $config to MobileDetect constructor.
• added autoInitOfHttpHeaders configuration which is by default true. This enabled the old behavior from 3.x and 2.x that allows automatic detection of HTTP headers and User Agent from $_SERVER.
• refactored internal CloudFront related methods and the way setHttpHeaders work. It no longer falls back on $_SERVER. The method still calls setUserAgent in case HTTP_USER_AGENT and friends are present.
• added maximumUserAgentLength to the $config, by default the limit is 500.

• Support for PHP>=8.x
• PSR-16 cache support https://github.com/php-fig/simple-cache
• Run benchmark tests with https://github.com/phpbench/phpbench
• Split regex strings into array of strings. The main reason for this is future performance improvements, cross-platform compatibility and overall readability.
