Standford's like password policy : PHP implementation

This library implements a checker for Standford's password policy in PHP with only one minor change :

The minimal password's length is 9 (instead of 8 in the original policy)

The Standford password policy is a length-based password policy : increase password length = decrease constraints.

9-11 character passwords require the use of upper and lower case, numerical and special characters.
12-15 character passwords require the use of upper and lower case and numerical characters.
16-19 character passwords require upper and lower case characters
20+ characters require any characters.
