This flag generates an arginfo file that discards all type and
default value information. As such, it is compatible with old
(and very old) PHP versions.
Intended for use by extensions to generate one arginfo file for
PHP 8 and one for older versions.
With named arguments in php 8.0, it's important that php's modules
or PECL extensions using gen_stub.php don't generate functions
with duplicate names.
Warn if a parameter name is repeated,
even if the last occurrence is a variadic parameter
Closes GH-6035
PHP-Parser 4.3.0 failed to recognize that the `match` keyword could be
used as a class constant name.
4.9.0 also adds support for keywords in namespaced names.
See https://github.com/nikic/PHP-Parser/releases
So forcing regeneration of spl_iterators.stub.php failed.
PECL extensions using gen_stub.php would also be affected
by the same issue.
```
ext/spl/spl_iterators.stub.php
public function __construct(Iterator $iterator, string $regex,
int $mode = self::MATCH, int $flags = 0, int $preg_flags = 0) {}
```
Testing: I successfully regenerated stubs by setting forceRegeneration to true
and running `touch **/*.stub.php; make`.
The stubs did not change, as expected.
Closes GH-6036
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.
For whatever reason, php 8 would not have loaded the subsequent classes when
running `php build/gen_stub.php path/to/filename.php`.
I assume it didn't load the classes immediately because there's a possibility
the code before it would throw.
(Probably because __toString was added recently and prevents early binding)
Also, fix a typo
Closes GH-5369
Closes GH-5353. From now on, PHP will have reflection information
about default values of parameters of internal functions.

If @generate-function-entries is specified in the stub file,
also generate function entries for the extension.
Currently limited to free functions only.
