And convert some object to string conversion related recoverable
fatal errors into Error exceptions.
Improve exception safety of internal code performing string
conversions.
Apparently Serializable::serialize() can return NULL, which is encoded
as N;. As we do not allow back-references to non-object values in
PHP 7.3 we need to make sure that any references are also compiled to
N;.
This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.
A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.
This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.
With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.
Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.

The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
Before this change, var_export()'s output for stdClass objects calls
the non-existent stdClass::__set_state method, and is therefore useless.
This commit makes var_export() output an (object) cast from an array
instead, which when evaluated, will produce a stdClass object. Other
classes see unchanged output.
zval_dtor() doesn't make a lot of sense in PHP-7.* and it's used incorrectly in some places.
Its occurances should be replaced by zval_ptr_dtor() or zval_ptr_dtor_nogc(), or even more specialized destructors.
However, don't require internal functions returning by reference to return a reference.
Mark unserialize() as returning by reference and remove unwrap_reference hack, to allow proper returning of self referenced arrays using a reference.
Currently unserialize() is the only internal function that may return a reference.
The (UN)SERIALIZE_INIT/DESTROY macros now go through non-inlined
functions, so any changes to them will apply to extensions without
rebuilds.
Additionally, the (un)serialize_data structures are now no longer
exported.
This means that we are allowed to change these structures in patch
releases without breaking the ABI.
