Expected output

The two types should be the same

This is due to generalizing of template types. See phpstan/phpstan-src#1206

Last night I came up with the idea that we mostly shouldn't generalize the generic type variables, except when they're in object generics, like Foo<int>.

Here's the resulting PR: phpstan/phpstan-src#2818

We can't do this for objects, because I want new Collection([1, 2, 3]) to become Collection<int>. This could be improved in the future thanks to this suggestion: #6732 (comment) (but it's pretty complex to implement so for now it has to wait).

The new behaviour now only applies to bleeding edge (https://phpstan.org/blog/what-is-bleeding-edge) so definitely enable it to get the taste of the future 👍
