An INI section wouldn't have the extension directory path AND wouldn't have
the name of the SO to load. On Windows, its zend_extension=php_opcache.DLL.
Typically the same opcache, etc... feature/test should work across os
platforms.

OpCache tests can just use a SKIPIF section to be skipped unless the user
has configured OpCache to be loaded. Forcing OpCache to be loaded makes
sure that test gets run during a casual test run (somebody just running
`make test`). That's what a ZEND_EXTENSION section would do. There are
several new section types already.

If you really want to add a ZEND_EXTENSIONS section, that's fine.

It is important though to have SKIPIF code that checks for such zend
extensions being loaded:

That allows for backwards compatibility.

Also, that will avoid a mismatch with PFTT... PFTT has scenarios that can
load/configure extensions for all tests to be run, fe: run all tests with
opcache enabled or run all tests with opcache disabled. SKIPIF code would
allow such PHPTs to be skipped or not for those scenarios, otherwise there
is a mismatch in features between PFTT and run-test.php.
