PHP 8.4.6RC1 released

The release candidate for PHP 8.4.6 has been released for testing, addressing multiple bugs, including pointer subtraction for scale, property hook backing value access in multi-level inheritance, unintended inheritance of default values in overridden virtual properties, as well as problems with reflection functions and lazy objects. The update also resolves OSS-Fuzz #403308724, notable performance degradation in 'foreach', assertion violations when accessing the same file multiple times, DOM issues, lowercased attributes in the DOM, and the destruction of live attributes by xinclude. Additional corrections encompass memory leaks identified in the error handling paths of fuzzer SAPI, as well as memory leaks within GD, LDAP, Mbstring, Opcache, PDO, Standard, SOAP, SPL, Treewide, and Windows. The updates resolve concerns related to typemap, offsetGet, RC1 data returned from offsetGet, zend_reference_destroy(), and zend_vm_gen.php.
