Released Rector 0.17

Preparing for Rector 1.0

In this release, we focus on architecture improvements before reaching Rector 1.0. We want to lower the memory usage and make Rector run faster.

This include removing next/previous nodes - this will most likely not affect you, as Rector rules were upgraded, but if you do you use them, switch to StmtsAwareInterface instead

We follow PHPStan 1.6 move from April 2022, where you can learn more: https://phpstan.org/blog/preprocessing-ast-for-custom-rules

• Replace NodeConnectingVisitor with ParentConnectingVisitor (#3900)

To see how to refactor to StmtsAwareInterface, check these PRs:

• Remove NEXT_NODE dependency in ChangeAndIfToEarlyReturnRector, narrow to only closed scope function likes (#3913)
• Remove NEXT_NODE from SimplifyIfReturnBoolRector (#3915)
• [DeadCode] Remove next attribute on RemoveUnusedVariableAssignRector ([#3917](https://github.com/rectorphp/
• [CodingStyle] Refactor CatchExceptionNameMatchingTypeRector to use StmtsAwareInterface (#3788)

Add/remove nodes directly 👍

The next improvement focuses on explicit node adding/removal. Thanks to StmtsAwareInterface we can add nodes directly. This makes Rector refactor() method contain all the code you need.

• Cleanup usage of NodesToAddCollector, return nodes directly instead (#4003)
• Cleanup removeNodeFromStatements(), removeArg(), removeParam(), removeStmt() methods and remove nodes directly (#4012)
• Remove unused addNodeAfterNode(), return nodes instead (#4023)
• Remove unused method addNodesBeforeNode() (#4024)

Removed rules 💀

We've also remove bunch of rules, that were added in early days of Rector for demo purposes. They were not used as of any set for non-reliable cases. PHPStan and coding standards replace some of those.
