Keys are yielded using the
yield $key => $value
syntax. Currently this is implemented as a statement only and not as an
expression, because conflicts arise considering nesting and use in arrays:
yield yield $a => $b;
// could be either
yield (yield $a) => $b;
// or
yield (yield $a => $b);
Once I find some way to resolve these conflicts this should be available
as an expression too.
Also the key yielding code is rather copy-and-past-y for the value yielding
code, so that should be factored out.
Yield now is an expression and the return value is the value passed to
$generator->send(). By default (i.e. if ->next() is called) the value is
NULL.
Unlike in Python ->send() can be run without priming the generator with a
->next() call first.
If the generator is closed before it has finished running, it may happen
that some FREE or SWITCH_FREE opcodes haven't been executed and memory is
leaked.
This fixes it by walking the brk_cont_array and manually freeing the
variables.
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.
