VarDumper currently does not understand that certain reflection objects might have attributes attached to it. Dumping a `ReflectionAttribute` just yields `ReflectionAttribute {#4711}` which is not really helpful. This PR attempts to fix this.

```
ReflectionAttribute {#4711
  name: "App\MyAttribute"
  arguments: array:2 [
    0 => "one"
    "extra" => "hello"
  ]
}
```

While working on this, I noticed that class constants (which can be reflected on since PHP 7.1) are just dumped as plain values, so I've also added a caster for `ReflectionClasConstant` as bonus.

The full output for the `LotsOfAttributes` fixture class that is included with is PR looks like this:
