Add DataCollectionSynth

[edalzell]

Going to leave this as draft because I'd like to explain my use case and see if you folks are willing to accept this. If so, I will add tests.

In my project I have a custom DataCollection called StationCollection and because I'm using Livewire (v3), I had it implement Wireable. However, the WireableSynth in Livewire expects properties:

    function set(&$target, $key, $value) {
        $target->{$key} = $value;
    }

Which throws an error when used.

To work around this I created a DataCollectionSynth that handles things properly, and then made a custom synth that inherits from DataCollectionSynth to deal with my custom stuff (mostly type hinting).

Note that to use this, one would have to add this to your service provider, Livewire::propertySynthesizer(DataCollectionSynth::class);

Does that sound reasonable?

Hi @edalzell,

Thanks for the PR, I first need to get started with LiveWire 3 and read myself into the hydration and synthesizers part. When that's done I'll again take a look at this PR!

FYI, I've pulled this into my project and it works great.

Just pushed a fix, we need to dehydrate recursively (thanks Josh!)

Still on my radar, now I have some time since v4 is our gonna take a look at this next week or the week after that.
