Dear Internals,

Last week I sent a patch[1] to address a feature request[2] for a way to
identify at runtime what file a constant was declared in. Since this adds
the filename (a `zend_string`) to every `zend_constant` instance, it is not
the most trivial of changes.

It was suggested[3] by iluuu1994 that this may qualify as a small change
that can be merged without an RFC, if there are no objections on the
mailing list. So, are there any objections?

I'll note that the `ReflectionConstant` class was added[4] as part of PHP
8.4, so it would be great if this new method could also be included as part
of the 8.4 release.

Thanks,
