PHP5 is no longer actively supported by the PHP developers and security
support for it ends completely at the end of 2018, so it doesn't make
sense to include support for it in the upcoming SWIG 4.0.0 release.
See #701.
This is SWIG's default for every language except PHP, and now is a
good time to make this change so that once we drop PHP5 support, we'll
have the same default everywhere. It's easy to override the default
with -cppext cxx to get the PHP5 behaviour.
PHP5's C extension API has changed substantially so you need to use
-php7 to specify you want PHP7 compatible wrappers.
Fixes https://github.com/swig/swig/issues/571
wkhtmltopdf is not expanding tabs within <pre> elements to 8 spaces as it
should. Workaround the problem by converting all tabs to an appropriate
number of spaces.
Provide -cppext as a general command line option for setting the
extension used for generated C++ files (previously it was specific
to the PHP backend). Deprecate the equivalent -suffix option
provided by the Ocaml backend, but continue to support that for
now.
Allow using Perl-like \l, \L, \u, \U and \E escape sequences in the
substitution string used with %rename("%(regex:/pattern/subst/)s").
This is useful for e.g. title casing all string after removing some prefix.
Closes#82
Replace incorrect documentation of $parentNode from %rename discussion: it
advised using match$parentNode but this doesn't work because the parent node
is not yet set when %rename is parsed.
Document the "fullname" attribute of %rename which can be used to restrict the
match to the given full name of a declaration only.

"regexmatch" and "notregexmatch" can be used with anonymous %renames in the
same way as "match" and "notmatch" while "regextarget" specifies that the
argument of a non-anonymous %rename should be interpreted as a regular
expression.
Document the new functions.
Also add a new unit test for %regex also testing regexmatch &c and provide
test code for C# and Java verifying that it works as intended.
