Replace EG(autoload_func) with a C level zend_autoload hook.
This avoids having to do one indirection through PHP function
calls. The need for EG(autoload_func) was a leftover from the
__autoload() implementation.
Additionally, drop special-casing of spl_autoload(), and instead
register it just like any other autoloading function. This fixes
bug #71236 as a side-effect.
Finally, change spl_autoload_functions() to always return an array.
The distinction between false and an empty array no longer makes
sense here.
Closes GH-5696.
This makes it always throw a TypeError, moreover this makes the
error message consistent.
Added a warning mentioning that the second parameter is now ignored
when passed false.
Closes GH-5301
This assumes that `iterator_*` will now always throw or abort on failure.
Also, move #include _arginfo.h directive to the top of the file - virtually all
other files put it there, and developers may base code on basic_functions.c.
