All,

I updated the RFC, and made a couple updates to tests where this notice is
raising itself (fpm & mysqli).  I ended up catching a couple of oddities in
how mine (and previous proposed) changes would have impacted a
foreach(list() = each()), so it won't raise a warning on the last, null,
element of each.

Before I ask for voting, I do have a best-practices question I hope someone
would have an answer to.  My dev setup doesn't include all the extensions,
nor do I have a copy of windows for testing.  What would be the best way to
ensure all tests are run so I can find other locations where this warning
might be adversely impacting some of the tests?  I know Travis will run
tests when I create a PR, but I don't know if it is ensuring all tests are
fully run either.

Thanks
