Setting escapingReplacements property of the LikeCondition

[easyrider7522]

Object Form in yii\db\Query conditions introduced in Yii 2.0.14 is really great and timely enhancement!

It would be nice although setting its escapingReplacements property in a more convenient way, than calling its setter method:

    $likeObject->setEscapingReplacements( false );

The property itself is not public but protected, so direct assignment raises exception:

    $likeObject->escapingReplacements = false;

In general, it would be nice to set escapingReplacements at object creation as fouth parameter passed to __construct method, e.g. like this:

    $data = ( new Query())
        ->select([ 'id', 'name' ])
        ->from( 'locality' )
        ->where( new LikeCondition( 'postal', 'LIKE', '12345_', false ))
        ->all();

This would eliminate the need in additional object holding var and code lines:

    $likeObject = new LikeCondition( 'postal', 'LIKE', '12345_' );
    $likeObject->setEscapingReplacements( false );
    $data = ( new Query())
        ->select([ 'id', 'name' ])
        ->from( 'locality' )
        ->where( $likeObject )
        ->all();

Thank you for the feedback. Would you like to submit a Pull Request?

It's already available in LikeCondition::fromArrayDefinition(), but not available in new LikeCondition(). Will be good add new parameter to constructor 👍

But here's what confused me:

• empty array means that should be used default escape replacements;
• null means that no escape replacements.

On the contrary, it would be more logical, is not it?
