Description:
------------
The introduced feature ::class on objects is throwing a syntax error when being used in string concatenation using curly braces.

Error:
PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected token "}", expecting "->" or "?->" or "{" or "[" in php shell code on line 1



Test script:
---------------
class Test {};
$a = new Test();
echo "Test " . $a::class;
echo "Test {$a::class}";



Expected result:
----------------
In my opinion the lines 3 and 4 should output the same result "Test Test"

This is not really specific to ::class, applies to $a::XYZ generally. In any case, this is clearly a feature request.
