Given that ICU is a set of lively developed libraries, that ICU 50.1
has been released on 2012-11-05, and PHP 7.4 is scheduled to be
released seven years after it, we consider it appropriate to ditch
these legacy versions.
Particularly, that would be a reasonable groundwork to implement part
two of the “Deprecate and remove INTL_IDNA_VARIANT_2003” RFC[1], namely
to default idn_to_ascii()'s and idn_to_utf8()'s $variant parameter to
INTL_IDNA_VARIANT_UTS46, which is not defined in ICU < 4.6.

Use the new 'ZSTR' macros in the rest of the code.
Does not change anything to the generated code (thanks to compat macros) but cleaner.

Improve zend_string API
Add missing methods
Introduces a ZEND_PARSE_PARAMS_THROW flag for zpp, which forces to
report FAILURE errors using a TypeException instead of a Warning,
like it would happen in strict mode.
Adds a zend_parse_parameters_throw() convenience function, which
invokes zpp with this flag.
Converts all cases I could identify, where we currently have
throwing zpp usage in constructors and replaces them with this API.
Error handling is still replaced to EH_THROW in some cases to handle
other, domain-specific errors in constructors.
The address of $this passed to drectly called internal constructor in execute_data->return_value.
Internal constructors should use ZEND_CTOR_MAKE_NULL() macro (insted of previous ZEND_NULL(EG(This))) to do the work.
This patch doesn't fix the problem for indirectly called constructors. e.g. parant::__construct().
