Description:
------------
I think we need to be able to allow traits to require that the class in which it can be used must be an instance of an arbitrary class/interface.

Expected result:
----------------
trait AirConditioning requires Vehicle
{
    public function increaseTemperature() { $this->ambientTemperature++; }
    public function decreaseTemperature() { $this->ambientTemperature--; }
}

abstract class Vehicle
{
    protected $ambientTemperature;
}

class Car extends Vehicle {}
class Truck extends Vehicle {}
class Dog extends Animal {}

class MyOldCar extends Car {}
class MyNewCar extends Car
{
    use AirConditioning; // Should be OK
}

class MyLabrador extends Dog
{
    use AirConditioning; // Should throw an exception
}

My $0.02: allow traits to specify that they implement Interfaces. This is their #1 use already.

Apparently, this proposal is controversial and as such would
require an RFC, see <https://wiki.php.net/rfc>. Everybody is
welcome to create a respective RFC; if you do so please refer to
this feature request. In the meantime, I'm suspending this ticket.
