Cache keys prefixing disabling

Now prefix option can be set to empty string to disable prefixes:

'altfile' => [
    'driver' => 'altfile',
    ...
    'prefix' => '',
],

Thanks to Macek007 for this fix.

Laravel 11 Support

Note: It is still compatible with previous versions of Laravel.

Fixed default cache duration

Thanks to @iamvladshevchuk for report (#49)

Fixed connecting to store to set logger

In AlternativeCacheStoresServiceProvider replaced $store->getWrappedConnection()->setLogger(app('log')) by $store->setLogger($app->make('log')) which does not initiate a connection to store.

Added support for Stringable keys and tags

Keys and Tags now can be instances of classes that have __toString() method.

Thanks to code-distortion for report and PR.

Redis driver registration when using predis lib

Fixed redis driver registration when predis lib is used instead of php-redis extension.

Thanks to @bjhijmans for PR.

Conditional drivers registration, Laravel 10 support, refactoring

• Updated PHP requirements in composer to allow all versions since 7.2.5 (but actually version 7.4 is minimum because of other packages);
• Refactored service provider to register drivers only when required classes/interfaces exist;
• Updated to comply to PSR 12 code style;
• Added type hints where possible;

Laravel 9 supported.
Laravel 10 supported.

Refactoring and outdated code cleanup

• AlternativeCacheStore::getHierarchySeparator() now does not create connection to detect hierarchy separator (thanks to @dciprian-petrisor)
• AlternativeHierarchialFileCacheStore, AlternativeRedisCacheStore and AlternativeMemcachedCacheStore now determine hierarchy separator explicitly;
• Removed outdated code related to Laravel <= 5.6 (cache expected minutes for ttl, since 5.7 it expects seconds);
• Updated PHPDoc blocks;
• Minor refactoring and code cleanup;
• Refactored and fixed tests (used 1 as ttl for cache);

AlternativeTaggedCache methods put(), putMany() and forever() now have returns
