Merge beforeOptions, beforeInput and beforeAgent into a single before attribute

      There are now three different before attributes for when which are evaluated in this very order:

      • beforeOptions
      • beforeInput
      • beforeAgent

      The documentation tries to describe this "highlander principle" but it would be much more logical and readable if there was only a single attribute before allowing only a single value of options, input or agent.
      E.g.:

          when {
              before git 
              // ...
          }
      

      Migration consideration: The old dedicated before attributes should not be removed right away. Instead those attributes should be marked deprecated and their usage should yield warnings in the log.
