Remove doctrine-specification package #1921
Description
The package has served the project well, and it was important to make API restrictions a reality.
However, it is mostly stale. They haven't released a new version, created an issue or committed in more than 2 years.
With the upcoming Symfony 7 and Doctrine ORM 3, this package is going to become a blocker to update.
Removing it seems the most sensible and future-proof option, but it's not going to be an easy task.
API and database tests will come handy here.

Short term, and to avoid blocking updates to latest Symfony and Dcotrine versions, it would be ok to fork the doctrine-specification repo, update dependencies, check CI passes, then republish as
shlinkio/doctrine-specification.That would give time to migrate away from the library progressively.

For now, the package has been forked in https://github.com/shlinkio/doctrine-Specification, adding support for Doctrine ORM 3.0, Symfony 7.0 and PHP 8.2/83

The part of Shlink making a more extensive use of this package is everything around API key roles and restrictions.
The plan is to remove that feature anyway, which will make it much easier to drop this package entirely, so I'm going to delay this until then.
