Since PHP 7.4 using this is very likely wrong, and we don't have
any core uses of it for that reason. Extensions shouldn't be using
it either. Accept as Z_PARAM_ZVAL and then assign using
ZEND_TRY_ASSIGN macros.

And convert some object to string conversion related recoverable
fatal errors into Error exceptions.
Improve exception safety of internal code performing string
conversions.
Export zend_release_fcall_info_cache(). It is only necessary to
call it if the fcc may not have been used -- if it is passed to
zend_call_function() and friends, then they will take care of
freeing trampolines.
Previously zend_parse_parameters (and FastZPP) would handle invalid
arguments depending on strict_types: With strict_types=1, a TypeError
is thrown, with strict_types=0 a warning is thrown and (usually) NULL
is returned. Additionally, some functions (constructors always and
other methods sometimes) opt-it to throwing regardless of strict_types.
This commit changes zpp to always generate a TypeError exception in
PHP 8.
This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.
A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.
This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.
With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.
Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.
