THRIFT-3514: Add PHP 7 version of php_thrift_protocol This is an initial port of php_thrift_protocol to PHP7 and an RFC how to approach it. However as we deal with zval's all over the place, we opt for separating the C files completely leading to some overhead. However this is a good start to see the differences in the implementation. From there we should follow up with a more unified approach by refactoring parts of the zval handling to be more generic so we can plug it into PHP 7 and PHP 5 extensions. Tested this by running with TestClient.php against a CPP server and using TBinaryProtocolAccelerated.
