Middleware and model binding in Mezon Router

Hi all! According to this issue I have implemented feature request. As you can see it was abou model binding.

Let’s see how it works.

You can register your own middleware wich will be called before the route handler will be executed. This middleware can transform common parameters $route and $parameters into something different.

Here is the example:

$router = new Router();
$router->addRoute('/user/[i:id]', function(string $route, array $parameters){
    $userModel = new UserModel();
    $userObject = $userModel->getUserById($parameters[$id]);
    // use $userObject for any purpose you need
});

Quite simple, but you can register middleware wich will do all dirty job:

$router = new Router();
$router->addRoute('/user/[i:id]', function(UserObject $userObject){
    // here we get $userObject directly
    // use use it in any way we need
});
$router->registerMiddleware('/user/[i:id]', function(string $route, array $parameters){
    $userModel = new UserModel();
    $userObject = $userModel->getUserById($parameters[$id]);
    return $userObject;
});

And here we get model binding.
