Description:
------------
Null Coalescing Operator throw a notice when key is a numeric string, just like "10-10" or "123b".

Test script:
---------------
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Shanghai");

$context = ['attributes' => 'config'];

// example1
var_dump($context['attributes']['10-10'][':type'] ?? null);

// the same as example1
var_dump(isset($context['attributes']['10-10'][':type']) ? $context['attributes']['10-10'][':type'] : null);


Expected result:
----------------
NULL

NULL

// Isset function and [Null Coalescing Operator] should not throw exceptions.

Actual result:
--------------
Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered in /home/zorzz/index.php on line 8
NULL

Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered in /home/zorzz/index.php on line 9
NULL

Null coalesce is not a generic error suppression operator. The only error conditions it needs to suppress are "undefined index" style errors. For historical reasons, some additional errors may be suppressed, but that's generally something we're moving away from.

But the PHP manual gives a similar use, and "10-10" is a correct index.
I'm amazed. I think the judgment behavior is inconsistent in some cases.

?? will not hide trying to use an invalid *string offset*. Because $context['attributes'] is a string, not an array.

$array['10-10'] ?? null is okay.
$string['10-10'] ?? null is not okay.

I got it.
