When a class (or enum) has no methods, rather than using an array that only
contains `ZEND_FE_END`, use `NULL` for the functions. The implementation of
class registration for internal classes, `do_register_internal_class()` in
zend_API.c, already skips classes where the functions are `NULL`. By removing
these unneeded arrays, we can reduce the size of the header files, while also
removing an unneeded call to zend_register_functions() for each internal class
with no extra methods.
Currently, internal classes are registered with the following code:
INIT_CLASS_ENTRY(ce, "InternalClass", class_InternalClass_methods);
class_entry = zend_register_internal_class_ex(&ce, NULL);
class_entry->ce_flags |= ...;
This has worked well so far, except if InternalClass is readonly. It is because some inheritance checks are run by zend_register_internal_class_ex before ZEND_ACC_READONLY_CLASS is added to ce_flags.
The issue is fixed by adding a zend_register_internal_class_with_flags() zend API function that stubs can use from now on. This function makes sure to add the flags before running any checks. Since the new API is not available in lower PHP versions, gen_stub.php has to keep support for the existing API for PHP 8.3 and below.
* Add `json_validate(string $json, int $depth = 512, int $flags = 0): bool` from https://wiki.php.net/rfc/json_validate
* In json_validate, use a different set of C no-op functions for creating/updating
arrays/objects when validating while reusing the unmodified parser/scanner code
* Forbid unsupported flags in json_validate()
* Remove test of passing NULL as parameter (normal behavior of https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecate_null_to_scalar_internal_arg for internal functions)

@cname currently refers to the constant name in C. However, it is not always a (constant) name, but sometimes a function invocation, so naming it as @cvalue would be more appropriate.
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.
