[PHP] Simple Postman Collection to http converter

/***********************************************************************************************************************
 * Simple Postman Collection Converter
 *
 * Author: Anthony Axenov (c) 2021
 * Version: v1.1
 * License: MIT
 * Dependecies: php8.0, php-json
 *
 * This script converts Postman Collection v2.1 to http-files:
 * 1) builds same directory tree as in collection
 * 2) builds ready to run *.http files (except you use Postman's environment vars)
 * 3) builds *.md file with description and examples
 *
 * Usage:
 *
 * 1) Export collection from Postman as described here using 'Collection v2.1':
 *    https://learning.postman.com/docs/getting-started/importing-and-exporting-data/#exporting-collections
 *
 * 2) Run:
 *
 *    php convert.php /path/to/collection.json
 *
 * 3) Optional: you can make script executable first and then run as usual:
 *
 *    sudo chmod a+x convert.php
 *    ./convert.php /path/to/collection.json
 *
 * Note: '~' alias is allowed, it will be replaced to current user home dir.
 *
 * Note: this script was quickly written to solve one exact problem in one NDA-project, so it may contain
 * stupid errors and (for sure) doesn't cover ALL of possible cases according to collection scheme. So feel
 * free to fork and change this script according your needs and to propose your fixes here.
