Description:
------------
how does the fact that something is no longer experimental justify bloated binaries with unused code? frankly i don't want having "systemctl reload httpd" not clear the opcache and i don't want bloatet binaries

if you want to to do something useful move the core into a loadable so-file instead have it twice in /usr/bin/php and /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/libphp7.so and make both a tiny shim-loader

----------------------

Remove --disable-opcache-filecache option
This is no longer an experimental feature, and we have the ability
to control this at runtime via an ini setting.

Because nobody ever tests the --disable-opcache-filecache build and IIRC it was broken at the time due to a missing #ifdef. A marginally smaller binary is not a reason to keep around this option. This does not make up any significant part of the binary.

it makes a significant part of the opcache.so binary and testing these days is the job of a computer and not humans 

we use that option since it exists *because* it makes opcache.so significant smaller and it was never broken except maybe PHP7.3 which is curently out-of-scope here given the large amout of bugs which slowly go in a direction to call it "stable"

Please provide specific numbers for the significant size increases you are seeing, as well as which compile options they were produced under.

around 20% with a highly optimized PGO build as far as i remember
