[PHP-DEV] [VOTE] First-class callable syntax

Hi internals, As the partial function application RFC has not been accepted, I have opened voting on https://wiki.php.net/rfc/first_class_callable_syntax. The vote closes on 2021-07-16. This RFC uses a syntax that is forward-compatible with partial function application. Should it not be accepted,
