Description
I'd like to use https://github.com/symfony/console/blob/master/Helper/Table.php in a similar manor to dump(). I know that the console command has a nice table helper as shown in here like this:

I'd like to use this hypothetical "table_dump" feature in the php artisan tinker and phpunit contexts.
$ php artisan tinker
