Dynamic properties are generally referred to as "dynamic" properties, while
non-dynamic properties are not commonly referred to as "default" properties.
Thus, the existing method `ReflectionProperty::isDefault()` has a non obvious
name; while an alias could be added for `isNotDynamic()`, a new `isDynamic()`
method seems cleaner. The new method returns the opposite of `isDefault()`;
dynamic properties are not present on the class by default, and properties
present by default are not added dynamically.

To match other capitalized strings like `ZEND_STR_UNKNOWN_CAPITALIZED` and
`ZEND_STR_ARRAY_CAPITALIZED`. Since this known string was only added in PHP
8.4, no backwards compatibility alias is needed.
When a class (or enum) has no methods, rather than using an array that only
contains `ZEND_FE_END`, use `NULL` for the functions. The implementation of
class registration for internal classes, `do_register_internal_class()` in
zend_API.c, already skips classes where the functions are `NULL`. By removing
these unneeded arrays, we can reduce the size of the header files, while also
removing an unneeded call to zend_register_functions() for each internal class
with no extra methods.
Currently, internal classes are registered with the following code:
INIT_CLASS_ENTRY(ce, "InternalClass", class_InternalClass_methods);
class_entry = zend_register_internal_class_ex(&ce, NULL);
class_entry->ce_flags |= ...;
This has worked well so far, except if InternalClass is readonly. It is because some inheritance checks are run by zend_register_internal_class_ex before ZEND_ACC_READONLY_CLASS is added to ce_flags.
The issue is fixed by adding a zend_register_internal_class_with_flags() zend API function that stubs can use from now on. This function makes sure to add the flags before running any checks. Since the new API is not available in lower PHP versions, gen_stub.php has to keep support for the existing API for PHP 8.3 and below.
In the same time, let's not verify implementation aliases since they may now legitimately differ from their aliased function/method counterparts (think about the ext/dom refactoring where e.g. many return type declarations have changed). Additionally, unnecessary `@no-verify` tags are cleaned up.
The only backing types for Enums are int and string. The proper return type for ReflectionEnum::getBackingType() is thus null|ReflectionNamedType.

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.
Add support for readonly properties, for which only a single
initializing assignment from the declaring scope is allowed.

Implement printing for ReflectionAttribute. Attributes aren't
printed as part of reflection output for other structures (classes
etc) yet.
Closes GH-6117.
