Remove mcrypt

[lt]

As per the accepted RFC. mcrypt to be removed in 7.1+1

• Deleted ext/mcrypt
• Removed entries from php.ini examples
• Updated Travis config
• Removed several references, but deliberately left some in fileinfo/tests and CODING_STANDARDS

Considering that ext/mcrypt is currently still supported, I'd suggest to move it to PECL (immediately) before removing it from php-src.

[lt]

Target is master, where (as voted) it is no longer supported.

(That's not to say a PECL repo shouldn't be created, it should, but I cannot do that in this PR :))

[cmb69]

My reasoning is somewhat pessimistic: I'm afraid that as soon as it's removed from master, nobody might care to put it in a PECL repo. :-(

[lt]

I'll make sure that happens. Lets call this PR on-hold until the PECL is up.

Relevant mailing lists have been contacted. Awaiting feeback.

@CMB https://github.com/lt/pecl-mcrypt

phpize && ./configure && make && make test seems to pass.

Giving internals and pecl-dev an appropriate amount of time to respond to my intentions, and then I'll request a new package repo.

[CMB]

Why do I keep getting highlighted on this php-src stuff? People keep confusing me with somebody else apparently.

Sorry! My nick is cmb69…

@CMB Sorry my fault, you'll need to come to Github and click Unsubscribe on this thread now, or you'll keep getting updates.

(I feel your pain, a surprising amount of DSLs use @lt as a "less than" operator)

[krakjoe]

@lt can I get an update on this please (also, fix conflicts if possible) ?

[lt]

@krakjoe Conflict resolved.

I fired a mail to pecl-dev and internals, there was some brief discussion, some questions unanswered, but I'll go ahead and request PECL access anyway and see what happens.

[krakjoe]

Please can we get some links to internals threads, for future reference.

@Tyrael Ping. When you get a moment please can you create the php.net hosted git repo like we discussed. Thank you :)
