Description
PHP 8.5 | Tokenizer/PHP: polyfill the (void) cast
As part of the RFC for the
#[NoDiscard]attribute, a new typecast(void)has been introduced.This commit polyfills this new token for PHP < 8.5.
Includes tests covering the complete set of type casts, even though the PHPCS Tokenizer only handles the
(void)cast.Reason being, that PHP has deprecated and removed some casts, like
(unset), and their token constants may be removed from PHP Core at some point in the future. These tests should serve as a warning system for that eventuality.Ref: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/marking_return_value_as_important#void_cast_to_suppress_the_warning
Various sniffs: add tests with PHP 8.5 (void) cast
