Incorrect tokenization for ternary operator with match inside of it

[schlndh]

Describe the bug
It seems that normally the ? ... : ... should be tokenized as T_INLINE_THEN ... T_INLINE_ELSE, however if there is a match with default branch inside the "then" part then : remains T_COLON, which can break some sniffs (in my case it's this 3rd party sniff).

Code sample

<?php

$a = $b !== null
	? match ($c) {
		default => 5,
	}
	: null;

This is tokenized as:

    Process token [0]: T_OPEN_TAG => <?php\n
    Process token [1]: T_WHITESPACE => \n
    Process token [2]: T_VARIABLE => $a

    Process token  34 : T_SEMICOLON => ;
    Process token [35]: T_WHITESPACE => \n
    *** END PHP TOKENIZING ***

To reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a file called test.php with the code sample above...
2. Run phpcs -vvv test.php ...
3. See the generated tokens

Expected behavior
Tokenize ? ... : ... as T_INLINE_THEN ... T_INLINE_ELSE even with match (...) {default => ...} inside then branch.

Versions (please complete the following information):

• OS: Linux
• PHP: 8.2
• PHPCS: 3.7.2
• Standard: Any

@schlndh Thanks for reporting this. I have confirmed the issue and pulled PR #3792 which should fix this. Testing appreciated.

FYI: the fix for this issue is included in today's PHP_CodeSniffer 3.8.0 release.

As per #3932, development on PHP_CodeSniffer will continue in the PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer repository. If you want to stay informed, you may want to start "watching" that repo (or watching releases from that repo).
