Simple routing script for built-in php server

[Raruto]

The actual script has some limitations due to the built-in php server implementation:

php -S localhost:8080 index.php

(eg. opening http://localhost:8080/install causes a 404 error or similar)

For those interested in learning more check out:

• drupal's .ht.router.php (from which I took inspiration for the name)
• cockpit's .htaccess for any other missing rules (eg. "deny" rules)
• official documentation about the built-in server

Thanks for the contribution! I'll try to test this soon!

@aheinze now it works pretty much the same as the htaccess file (refer to #1404 for the section comments).

For convenience I have also added the following composer script:

composer run dev

composer.json:

    "scripts": {
        "dev": [
            "Composer\\Config::disableProcessTimeout",
            "php -r \"exec((['Darwin'=>'open', 'WINNT'=>'explorer'][PHP_OS] ?? 'xdg-open').' '.escapeshellarg('http://localhost:8080'));\"",
            "php -S localhost:8080 index.php"
        ]
    },

Essentially, it starts the development server and opens a new browser tab at the following address localhost:8080

Have a nice Day,
