Introduce Stmt\Block

Stmt\Block will be created for { $a; } style blocks, unless these
occur directly inside some structure that is usually combined
with a block.

For example if ($a) { $b; } will continue to use the old
representation (plain array in in If_::$stmts), but a free-standing
{ $b; } will become a Stmt\Block.

Fixes #590.

Represent names using string rather than array of parts

In most circumstances we are interested in the whole string, not
the parts split by namespace separator. As names are common, this
representation measurably improves memory usage and performance.

Rename Stmt\UseUse to UseItem

Remove PHP 5 parser

Migrate grammar to use PHP 8 T_NAME_* tokens

This will break everything on PHP < 8.

Distinguish between implicit/explicit alias

The UseUse::$alias node can now be null if an alias is not

Distinguish between implicit/explicit alias

The UseUse::$alias node can now be null if an alias is not
explicitly given. As such "use Foo\Bar" and "use Foo\Bar as Bar"
are now represented differently.

The UseUse->getAlias() method replicates the previous semantics,
by returning "Bar" in both cases.

Always use Identifier nodes

The parser will now always generate Identifier nodes (for
non-namespaced identifiers). This obsoletes the useIdentifierNodes
parser option.

Always use Identifier nodes

The parser will now always generate Identifier nodes (for
non-namespaced identifiers). This obsoletes the useIdentifierNodes
parser option.

Node constructors still accepts strings and will implicitly create
an Identifier wrapper. Identifier implement __toString(), so that
outside of strict-mode many things continue to work without changes.

Support recovery from invalid trailing commas

Recover from missing semicolons on statements

Perform automated test update

NodeDumper: Resolve type for include/use as well

Improve error recovery quality

In particular, support recovering from a missing trailing semicolon,
while keeping the rest of the expression.
