PR squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer#3831 / PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer#61 in PHPCS itself makes a change to improve the performance of the Config class.

This commit lets the UtilityMethodTestCase take advantage of that performance improvement by explicitly passing the report_width to prevent a call to shell_exec('stty ...') from being made and slowing down the tests.

While not benchmarked properly, with the test runs for PHPCSUtils on my local machine on Windows, the difference this change makes is significant and noticable:

  • Before: 2.5 minutes.
  • After: 1 second.

This advantage can only be seen with PHPCS 3.8.0 or higher, but the change does not negatively impact test runs against PHPCS < 3.8.0, so there is no need to raise the minimum PHPCS version.

PHPCSUtils 1.0.9 made a change to the `UtilityMethodTestCase` which causes the selected sniff to no longer register its token listeners as the `installed_paths` from the `CodeSniffer.conf` file are no longer read out.

While this is fine for actual utility methods, it breaks the tests for the `PHPCSDebug.Debug.TokenList` test.

Fixed now.
