[PHP] Auto formatting does not handle use ordering

[terax6669]

Apache NetBeans version

Apache NetBeans 20 release candidate

What happened

https://www.php-fig.org/per/coding-style/#3-declare-statements-namespace-and-import-statements

The header of a PHP file may consist of a number of different blocks. If present, each of the blocks below MUST be separated by a single blank line, and MUST NOT contain a blank line. Each block MUST be in the order listed below, although blocks that are not relevant may be omitted.

• Opening <?php tag.
• File-level docblock.
• One or more declare statements.
• The namespace declaration of the file.
• One or more class-based use import statements.
• One or more function-based use import statements.
• One or more constant-based use import statements.
• The remainder of the code in the file.

When using Source > Format (alt+shift+F) NetBeans correctly detect the blocks and separates them, but the order is not enforced. Only Source > Fix Imports (ctrl+shift+I) fixes the order.

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Vendor\Package;

use const PHP_EOL;

use Aws\ControlTower\ControlTowerClient;

use function array_merge;

use TCG\Voyager\Http\Controllers\Controller;

Uses placed after a class are breaking things even further.

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Vendor\Package;

use const PHP_EOL;

use Aws\ControlTower\ControlTowerClient;

use function array_merge;

class Point
{
	
}

use TCG\Voyager\Http\Controllers\Controller;

ctrl+shift+I

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Vendor\Package;

class Point
{
	
}

use Aws\ControlTower\ControlTowerClient;
use TCG\Voyager\Http\Controllers\Controller;

use function array_merge;

use const PHP_EOL;

This additionally breaks the "singe new-line at the end of file" rule, leaving 2 new lines.
