Remove local variables

This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.

A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.

This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.

With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.

Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.

Implement ??= operator

RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/null_coalesce_equal_operator

$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.

Class constants and ::class are unrelated features that happen to

Remove unused Git attributes ident

The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.

In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.

This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.

Fixed bug #75218

I've introduced a new CompileError type, from which ParseError
inherits. These errors are not parse errors in the narrow sense
of the term, even though they happen to be generated during
parsing in our implementation. Additionally reusing the ParseError
class for this purpose would change existing error messages (if
the exception is not caught) from a "Fatal error:" to a "Parse
error:" prefix, and also the error kind from E_COMPILE_ERROR to
E_PARSE.

Interned strings unification for TS/NTS

Hereby, interned strings are supported in thread safe PHP. The patch
implements two types of interned strings

- interning per process, strings are not freed till process end
- interning per request, strings are freed at request end

There is no runtime interning.

With Opcache, all the permanent iterned strings are copied into SHM on
startup, additional copying into SHM might happen on demand.
