Albeit CSV is still a widespread data exchange format, it has never been
officially standardized. There exists, however, the “informational” RFC
4180[1] which has no notion of escape characters, but rather defines
`escaped` as strings enclosed in double-quotes where contained
double-quotes have to be doubled. While this concept is supported by
PHP's implementation (`$enclosure`), the `$escape` sometimes interferes,
so that `fgetcsv()` is unable to correctly parse externally generated
CSV, and `fputcsv()` is sometimes generating non-compliant CSV. Since
PHP's `$escape` concept is availble for many years, we cannot drop it
for BC reasons (even though many consider it as bug). Instead we allow
to pass an empty string as `$escape` parameter to the respective
functions, which results in ignoring/omitting any escaping, and as such
is more inline with RFC 4180. It is noteworthy that this is almost no
userland BC break, since formerly most functions did not accept an empty
string, and failed in this case. The only exception was `str_getcsv()`
which did accept an empty string, and used a backslash as escape
character then (which appears to be unintended behavior, anyway).
The changed functions are `fputcsv()`, `fgetcsv()` and `str_getcsv()`,
and also the `::setCsvControl()`, `::getCsvControl()`, `::fputcsv()`,
and `::fgetcsv()` methods of `SplFileObject`.
The implementation also changes the type of the escape parameter of the
PHP_APIs `php_fgetcsv()` and `php_fputcsv()` from `char` to `int`, where
`PHP_CSV_NO_ESCAPE` means to ignore/omit escaping. The parameter
accepts the same values as `isalpha()` and friends, i.e. “the value of
which shall be representable as an `unsigned char` or shall equal the
value of the macro `EOF`. If the argument has any other value, the
behavior is undefined.” This is a subtle BC break, since the character
`chr(128)` has the value `-1` if `char` is signed, and so likely would
be confused with `EOF` when converted to `int`. We consider this BC
break to be acceptable, since it's rather unlikely that anybody uses
`chr(128)` as escape character, and it easily can be fixed by casting
all `escape` arguments to `unsigned char`.
This patch implements the feature requests 38301[2] and 51496[3].
[1] <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180>

Do not create an array with two keys for every element. That's a
huge waste of memory. Instead we allocate a two-element structure.
This reduces memory usage and avoids having to perform hashtable
lookups to get at the data and priority.
The only thing this might impact negatively is the non-default
EXTR_BOTH mode, in which case the array has to be created anyway.
This patch adds missing newlines, trims multiple redundant final
newlines into a single one, and trims redundant leading newlines in all
*.phpt sections.
According to POSIX, a line is a sequence of zero or more non-' <newline>'
characters plus a terminating '<newline>' character. [1] Files should
normally have at least one final newline character.
C89 [2] and later standards [3] mention a final newline:
"A source file that is not empty shall end in a new-line character,
which shall not be immediately preceded by a backslash character."
Although it is not mandatory for all files to have a final newline
fixed, a more consistent and homogeneous approach brings less of commit
differences issues and a better development experience in certain text
editors and IDEs.

This patch simplifies line endings tracked in the Git repository and
syncs them to all include the LF style instead of the CRLF files.
Newline characters:
- LF (\n) (*nix and Mac)
- CRLF (\r\n) (Windows)
- CR (\r) (old Mac, obsolete)
To see which line endings are in the index and in the working copy the
following command can be used:
`git ls-files --eol`
Git additionally provides `.gitattributes` file to specify if some files
need to have specific line endings on all platforms (either CRLF or LF).
Changed files shouldn't cause issues on modern Windows platforms because
also Git can do output conversion is core.autocrlf=true is set on
Windows and use CRLF newlines in all files in the working tree.
Unless CRLF files are tracked specifically, Git by default tracks all
files in the index using LF newlines.

Instead overload get_properties_for for a few specific cases such
as array casts. This resolves the issue where ArrayObject
get_properties may violate engine invariants in some cases.
- Test file from ext/spl/examples has been moved to ext/spl/tests
- Other custom SPL examples and implementations were removed in favor of
the PHP manual.
Documentation for the SPL was once rendered at
http://www.php.net/~helly/php/ext/spl/
With upgrades of the PHP manual, the SPL documentation moved there
instead and PHP files for the SPL docs in the PHP source code directory
were outdated and removed via 9003d8a4cf
