Special-case rc=1 self-referential arrays in ReflectionReference

New fix for bug #78263. This is special-cased elsewhere in the engine,
so we need to mirror it here.

Revert "Add ReflectionReference::getRefcount()"

This reverts commit 428cfdd1810b17f0064b7691276f0eb92dc963b6.

Deprecate Reflection export() methods

And remove the Reflector::export() interface method.

Evaluate constant in class scope

Don't call Reflection::export() internally

export() methods were implemented in a roundabout way, where they
would call Reflection::export(), which would then call __toString().

Cut out the middleman by directly calling __toString().

Add ReflectionReference::getRefcount()

And don't return null for rc=1 references. Leave it to the user
to decide whether or not they want to consider these as references
or not.

Deprecate ReflectionType::__toString()

We weren't able to do this in 7.1 because the deprecation notice
may be converted to an exception and __toString() can't throw,
which means that it ultimately become a fatal error. This issue
is resolved now, so we can mark the method as deprecated.

Fixed bug #75186

Fixed bug #77951

Treat singleton references as non-references in ReflectionReference
and return null for them.

Use fast zpp for ReflectionClass constructor

At this point zpp overhead makes up a significant part of this
function.

Optimize $name/$class property population in reflection

Instead of going through write_property, directly assign to the
respective property slot.

Don't return inside _DO_THROW macro

Returning inside _DO_THROW() is kind of pointless if we are going
to comment most uses with "this is gonna return".

Remove bogus ctor checks in get_class_methods() + reflection

Contrary to the comments, these only hide constructors (old or new
style) if they a) are inherited b) come from a trait and c) are
aliased -- which doesn't make any sense at all.
