Neither JIT nor FFI require backwards compatibility breaks in language. I don't think either of those particular features would substantially break the C API either. If these are the motivations for PHP 8 then I strongly object.
Personally, I think that the big jump in performance that JIT warrants is enough to justify a major version change, and it makes for a strong selling point, even if there are no BC breaks
