The hash is used to check whether the arginfo file needs to be
regenerated. PHP-Parser will only be downloaded if this is actually
necessary.
This ensures that release artifacts will never try to regenerate
stubs and thus fetch PHP-Parser, as long as you do not modify any
files.
Closes GH-5739.
Closes GH-5353. From now on, PHP will have reflection information
about default values of parameters of internal functions.

* get_parent_class() argument is optional
* Mark array_filter() $callback as optional
* The $base of gmp_strval() is optional
* DateTime constructor also accepts zero arguments
* hash_update_file() stream context is optional
* xmlwriter_write_dtd_entity() $isparam argument is optional
Signature stubs for internal functions are specified in xyz.stub.php,
from which we generate actual arginfo structures in xyz_arginfo.h.
This file then needs to be included in the implementation appropriately.
Arginfo from stubs can be regenerated using scripts/dev/gen_stub.php.
However, this should also automatically happen when the stub file is
modified.
