… of the declaring opline itself This makes the API compatible with creating partials from AST: We can pass &ast->lineno to zend_partial_create()
The declaring op_array is used for multiple purposes: * Generating a PFA name * Finding the filename * Finding whether op_array is cached, and therefore whether the PFA should be cached too However it's not available when evaluating a PFA AST. Remove the declaring_op_array argument, and pass the relevant information directly: * Generate the PFA name at compile time, pass it as argument to zend_partial_create() * Pass the filename and a cacheable flag as argument to zend_partial_create()
Pre-bound arguments are bound to the generated closure's lexical vars:
```
function f($a, $b) {}
$f = f(1, ?);
// Generates:
$tmp = 1;
$f = function ($b) use ($tmp) {
return f($tmp, $b);
};
```
Detect which pre-bound arguments are constant and burn them into the generated
closure instead:
```
function f($a, $b) {}
$f = f(1, ?);
// Generates:
$f = function ($b) {
return f(1, $b);
};
```

This reduces the overhead during both instantiation and invocation of PFAs.
