Valet-plus: Bug: valet-plus incompatible with latest laravel/installer

[Mezzle]

• [x] I've checked the issue queue and could not find anything similar to my bug.
• [x] I'm on the latest version of valet-plus (valet --version): 1.0.29-9-g2705275
• [x] I've run valet fix and valet install after updating and before submitting my issue/feature.

What is the problem?
composer global require laravel/installer fails due to conflict with symfony/console

What was supposed to happen?
Laravel installer should've installed

What actually happened?
```% composer global require laravel/installer
Changed current directory to /Users/mez/.composer

How to reproduce this?

• Install valet plus
• Attempt to install laravel/installer

What is the solution?
Update symfony/console

[Mezzle]

The lowest version of symfony/console that is required by laravel/installerrequired PHP 7.1.3

This is not fixable without updating the minimum version of PHP for valet-plus :(

[paulhennell]

This is also a problem the other way round leaving me unable to install valet plus:

- symfony/process v3.2.6 conflicts with symfony/console[v4.2.12].

How to reproduce this?

• Have laravel/installer installed globally
• Attempt to install Valet Plus globally

[ReinisL]

A temporary solution that worked for me was to use https://github.com/consolidation/cgr - as CGR avoids conflicts between global dependencies.

$ composer global require consolidation/cgr
$ cgr weprovide/valet-plus

[Mezzle]

Nice, I wasn't aware of that project :)

[ArnaudBan]

I have the same problem. It seems to be because of the mnapoli/silly@~1.5.0 requirement. Valet plus should require mnapoli/silly@~1.0 ( or mnapoli/silly@~1.7.0 )

[Neodork]

@Mezzle I'll tag this as Major and for 3.x since I don't see us solving this in 2.x with the PHP 5.6 and 7.0 support.

Also please note that if you install valet-plus with cgr before installing it regularly. The chances are very high you'll run into permission issues.
