CakePHP 6.x already declares @method T getTarget() on its four ORM association classes, which lets Mago retain the concrete target table without a source patch. Replace the proposed patch with regression coverage and leave the shipped preset unchanged.

The installed-consumer check covers BelongsTo, BelongsToMany, HasMany, and HasOne using fixtures that match CakePHP's annotations. Positive cases must return the concrete target type; negative cases must report four incompatible return types. The CakePHP 6.x compatibility script runs the same checks against the actual framework source without patches or extensions.

Validation: all package checks pass, including 12 PHPUnit tests, consumer checks, corpus validation, formatter and fixer checks. The CakePHP 6.x compatibility and analysis checks also pass against a local checkout. Rebased onto main after PR #4.

Closing this because the original issue was fixed upstream after this PR was opened.

This PR was opened on October 6. CakePHP added @method T getTarget() to all four association classes on October 9 in cakephp/cakephp@d4c1fe4, then merged that change from 5.next into 6.x on October 10: cakephp/cakephp@f3c73ed.

Those annotations let Mago preserve the concrete target table type without a source patch. Verified against current CakePHP 6.x source with Mago 1.47.2 and 1.54.0.

The original patch addressed a real gap at the time. Its replacement now only adds regression tests, so there is no remaining fix needed in this package.
