This helps to avoid unnecessary IS_REFERENCE checks.
This changes some notices "Only variables should be passed by reference" to exception "Cannot pass parameter %d by reference".
Also, for consistency, compile-time fatal error "Only variables can be passed by reference" was converted to exception "Cannot pass parameter %d by reference"
Internal constants can be marked as CONST_DEPRECATED, in which
case accessing them will throw a deprecation warning.
For now this is only supported on global constants, not class
constants. Complain to me if you need to deprecate a class
constant...
Closes GH-5072.
Avoid need of insertion NOP opcoes between unrelated SMART BRANCH instruction and following JMPZ/JMPNZ.
Now instead of checking the opcode of following instruction, the same information is encoded into SMART BRANH result_type.
The arena allocator has no problem with zero-size allocations (and
will just return the same pointer for each in this case), so just
do that to avoid null pointers.
The only remaining case-insensitive constants are null, true and
false, which are handled explicitly.
In the future we may convert them from constants to reserved keywords.

$a ??= $b is $a ?? ($a = $b), with the difference that $a is only
evaluated once, to the degree that this is possible. In particular
in $a[foo()] ?? $b function foo() is only ever called once.
However, the variable access themselves will be reevaluated.
Instead of interleaving creation of live-ranges with the main
compiler code, compute them in a separate pass over the opcodes
as part of pass_two. Additionally, do not keep live ranges
synchronized during optimization in opcache and instead use the
same mechanism to recompute them after optimization.
* Adjust IS_SERIALIZED() check to account for potential empty
allocations at the end of the memory region.
* Deallocate empty allocation if all try/catch elements have been
removed in the block pass (similar to what we do if all live
ranges have been eliminated).
Don't store the live range of the freed variable for FREE_ON_RETURN
frees, instead look it up at runtime. As this is an extremely
unlikely codepath (in particular, it requires a loop variable with
a throwing destructor), saving the runtime lookup of the live range
is not worth the extra complexity this adds everywhere else.
