Description:
------------
Detecting the PHAR in a file path like 'phar:///home/kelunik/acme-client.phar/vendor/autoload.php' works, but it fails if there's no '.phar' extension. 'phar:///home/kelunik/acme-client/vendor/autoload.php' therefore doesn't work if the PHAR is renamed to 'acme-client'.

Finding the PHAR in such a path isn't possible with quite some I/O. Because of that, I propose to use a non-valid character such as a NUL-byte to separate the PHAR path from the path inside the PHAR.

I think Java uses ! or # or so as a separator.

Expected result:
----------------
File functions work regardless of the file name of the PHAR.

Actual result:
--------------
File functions are broken if the PHAR doesn't end with '.phar'.

#76061 and #76128 might be related (not sure).

The documentation states[1]:

| The file name's extension must contain .phar.

So this is not a bug, but rather a feature request, in my opinion.

As it seems like a feature request, I would like to +1 the request. It would be nice to have a way to include/require PHARs without the extension in place, and let the developer handle situations where the file being loaded is not an actual PHAR.
