RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/dnf_types
This allows to combine union and intersection types together in the following form (A&B)|(X&Y)|T but not of the form (X|A)&(Y|B) or (X|A)&(Y|B)|T.
* Improve union type parsing

This does a compile time transformation of ``iterable`` into ``Traversable|array`` which simplifies some of the LSP variance handling.
The arginfo generation script from stubs is updated to produce a union type when it encounters the type ``iterable``
Extension functions which do not regenerate the arginfo, or write them manually are still supported by mimicking the compile time transformation while registering the function.
Type Reflection is preserved for single ``iterable`` (and ``?iterable``) to produce a ReflectionNamedType with name ``iterable``, however usage of ``iterable`` in union types will be converted to ``array|Traversable``
ReflectionAttribute::__construct() accepted any number of parameters until now, because parameter validation was missing. Even though this was unlikely to be an issue in practice (since the method is private), the problem is fixed by always throwing an exception.
When we need to evaluate constant ASTs, we always have to do that in
the scope where the constant has been defined, which may be a parent
of the `ReflectionClass`'s scope.
Closes GH-8106.
Requiring all internal classes (including those from 3rd-party
extensions) to implement Stringable if they provide __toString()
is too error prone. Case in point, our _ZendTestClass test class
was not doing so, resulting in preloading test failures after
recent changes.
Instead we automatically implement Stringable, the same as we do
for userland classes. We still allow explicit implementations,
but ignore them (normally they would result in an error due to
duplicate interface implementation). Finally, we need to be
careful about not trying to implement Stringable on Stringable
itself.
In some cases this changes the interface order, in particular the
automatic Stringable implementation will now come first.
As a followup to f34114b1fb print
the contents of arrays rather than just a generic "Array" marker.
Also drop the truncation on strings. As we no longer resolve
constants, there should be less concerns about printing very
large strings here. If someone thought it was a good idea to use
a 10k character strings as a default value in code, then it should
be fine for us to print it in reflection as well.
When dumping default values in ReflectionXXX::__toString(), for
expression initializers print the AST export instead of trying to
evaluate the expression. With the introduction of "new in
initializers" the result of the evaluation will commonly not be
printable at all, and "__toString" will throw an exception, which
is not particularly useful. Using the AST export also provides more
information on how the parameter was originally declared, e.g. it
preserves the fact that a certain constant was used.
Closes GH-7540.
BetterReflection would like to extend these classes to provide
adaptors. As our other Reflector classes are non-final, I think
it makes sense to make these non-final as well.
Closes GH-7520.
