Subject: [PATCH] Add suggest section to composer.json for recommended
 extensions

Add ext-iconv and ext-pcntl as suggested extensions in composer.json.

This way, Composer will display these recommendations when installing
PHP_CodeSniffer, helping users discover optional extensions that
improve functionality.
