Instead decide whether a function returned by reference or by value
by checking whether the return value has REFERENCE type. This means
that functions returning by reference must always return a reference
and functions returning by value must not return a reference.
- with opcache all IS_CONST operands are not refcounted (scalars, interned strings or immutable arrays)
- without opcache IS_CONST operands are not shared between processes or threads and may use common reference counters
"called_scope" made sense only for static method calls, for dynamic calls it was always equal to the class of $this.
Now EG(This) may store IS_OBJECT + $this or IS_UNUSED + "called_scope" (of course, "called_scope" may be NULL).
Some code might need to be adopted to support this change.
Checks (Z_OBJ(EX(This))) might need to be converted into (Z_TYPE(EX(This)) == IS_OBJECT).
