which fixes als #56349, same behavior but in ext/mysql. Both due to a bug

Silently casting an empty string, null or false into an object by adding a property
is pretty non-intuitive. If the same value was 1 or true you get a warning and it halts.

Silently casting an empty string, null or false into an object by adding a property
is pretty non-intuitive. If the same value was 1 or true you get a warning and it halts.

Since we can't break BC completely (yet) lets bump this from E_STRICT.

Also added a new section to UPGRADING for engine changes.

<?php
$x = '';
// $x = null;
// $x = false;
$x->baz = 1;
var_dump($x);

$y = 1;
$y->baz = 1;
var_dump($y);

- Fixed bug #53603 (ZipArchive should quiet stat errors).
#It is unclear if url_stat handlers should emit a warning in case
#PHP_STREAM_URL_STAT_QUIET is not specified and the resource does
#not exist. Most url_stat handlers never emit messages; the plain
#one does only so in the extraordinary event of an open_basedir
#restriction.
#But in case, php_stat uses PHP_STREAM_URL_STAT_QUIET for the
#FS_EXISTS, which suggests that mere checks on file existence are
#supposed to use this flag (arguably).
#The downside is that important diagnostic messages might be
#omitted.
