Refactored parameter passing mechanism.

In PHP-5.6 and below each argument passed to user function was copies on VM stack twice.
Now we always have ZEND_INIT_FCALL (or simular) opcode that pushes "call frame" on top of VM stack.
"Call frame" is actually the same zend_execute_data structure.
All the following ZEND_SEND instructions push arguments on top of the stack in a way that they directly comes into corresponding CV variables of the called frame. Extra arguments are copied at the end of stack frame (after all CV and TMP variables) on function enterance.

There are two minor incompatibilities:
1) It's not allowed to decalre functions redefining arguments e.g. "function foo($a,$a) {}".
2) func_get_arg() and func_get args() return the current value of argument and not the original value that was sent.

Optimized zend_leave_helper()

Use better data structures (incomplete) - refactored return_value handling

Use better data structures (incomplete)

Slight performance improvement

Moved zend_create_execute_data_from_op_array() implementation from zend_vm_execute.skl to zend_execute.c

Optimized access to temporary and compiled VM variables

. The VM stacks for passing function arguments and syntaticaly nested calls were merged into a single stack. The stack size needed for op_array execution is calculated at compile time and preallocate

. The VM stacks for passing function arguments and syntaticaly nested calls were merged into a single stack. The stack size needed for op_array execution is calculated at compile time and preallocated at once. As result all the stack push operatins don't require checks for stack overflow any more.
. Generators implementation was improved using the new VM stack. Now it's a bit more clear and faster.

Remove asterix modifier (*) for generators

Generators are now automatically detected by the presence of a `yield`
expression in their body.

This removes the ZEND_SUSPEND_AND_RET

Remove asterix modifier (*) for generators

Generators are now automatically detected by the presence of a `yield`
expression in their body.

This removes the ZEND_SUSPEND_AND_RETURN_GENERATOR opcode. Instead
additional checks for ZEND_ACC_GENERATOR are added to the fcall_common
helper and zend_call_function.

This also adds a new function zend_generator_create_zval, which handles
the actual creation of the generator zval from an op array.

I feel like I should deglobalize the zend_create_execute_data_from_op_array
code a bit. It currently changes EG(current_execute_data) and
EG(opline_ptr) which is somewhat confusing (given the name).

Make the GOTO and SWITCH VMs work again

Add support for executing a zend_execute_data

This adds another function execute_ex(), which accepts a zend_execute_data

Add support for executing a zend_execute_data

This adds another function execute_ex(), which accepts a zend_execute_data
struct to run (contrary to execute(), which accepts a zend_op_array from
which it initialized the execute_data).

This needs a bit more cleanup.

Allocate execute_data using malloc for generators

Generators need to switch the execute_data very often. If the execute_data
is allocated on the VM stack this operation would require to always copy
the structure (which is quite large). That's why the execution context is
allocated on the heap instead (only for generators obviously).

. zend_arg_info.required_num_args removed. it was needed only for internal
functions. Now the first arg_info for internal function (which has special
meaning) is represented by zend_internal_function_info structure.
. zend_op_array.size, size_var, size_literal, current_brk_cont,
backpatch_count moved into CG(context), because they are used only during
compilation.
. zend_op_array.start_op is moved into EG(start_op), because it's used
only for 'interactive' execution of single top-level op-array.
. zend_op_array.done_pass_two is replaced by ZEND_ACC_DONE_PASS_TWO in
zend_op_array.fn_flags.
. op_array.vars array is trimmed (reallocated) during pass_two.
. zend_class_entry.constants_updated is replaced by
ZEND_ACC_CONSTANTS_UPDATED in zend_class_entry.ce_flags
. the size of zend_class_entry is reduced by sharing the same memory space
by different information for internal and user classes.
See zend_class_inttry.info union.
