Allow in methods or functions

To allow a previously disallowed method or function only when called from a different method or function in any file, use allowInFunctions (or allowInMethods alias):

parameters:
    disallowedMethodCalls:
        -
            method: 'PotentiallyDangerous\Logger::log()'
            message: 'use our own logger instead'
            allowInMethods:
                - Foo\Bar\Baz::method()

And vice versa, if you need to disallow a method or a function call only when done from a particular method or function, use allowExceptInFunctions (with aliases allowExceptInMethods, disallowInFunctions, disallowInMethods):

parameters:
    disallowedMethodCalls:
        -
            method: 'Controller::redirect()'
            message: 'redirect in startup() instead'
            allowExceptInMethods:
                - Controller\Foo\Bar\*::__construct()

The function or method names support fnmatch() patterns.
