fix: Fix compilation of projects using dev composer plugins
Closes #580
Related https://github.com/composer/composer/issues/11325.
The problem is that dump-autoload does not really care about the --dev|--no-dev flag. It looks like it only cares about it for the actual dumped autoload, but before that, i.e. when autoloading the code, it does not and instead just loads everything that is registered in installed.json|installed.php.
The way Box works is:
- copy the source code
- remove dev deps (inferred via the composer json/lock files but it is done directly, not via Composer)
- dump the autoload
This means that if you have a dev plugin, e.g. phpstan/extension-installer, when dumping the autoload, the plugin will be attempted to be loaded. This of course cannot work since it's a dev dep and Box removed it.
I think this could be solved in Composer, but I also cannot just wait for a fix there so I'll likely need to temper the content of installed.json & installed.php
