Describe the bug

I am trying use exclude path in .php-cs-fixer.dist.php.
Php-cs-fixer docs say "By default --path-mode is set to override, which means, that if you specify the path to a file or a directory via command arguments, then the paths provided to a Finder in config file will be ignored. You can also use --path-mode=intersection, which will use the intersection of the paths from the config file and from the argument:"
So im trying to add args, but when i add it, format on save not working.

What is the severity of this bug?

minor (annoyance)

Steps To Reproduce

Just add to args --path-mode=intersection

Expected Behavior

Should be formatting when saving

Minimal example file

return {
"stevearc/conform.nvim",
  opts = {
    formatters = {
      php_cs_fixer = {
        stdin = false,
        args = {
          "fix",
          "--path-mode=intersection",
          "$FILENAME",
        },
      },
    },
  },
}

Additional context

Auto format is workign if remove from args --path-mode=intersection.
Working config

return {
"stevearc/conform.nvim",
  opts = {
    formatters = {
      php_cs_fixer = {
        stdin = false,
        args = {
          "fix",
          "$FILENAME",
        },
      },
    },
  },
}
