PHP version:      7.4.15
Package:          Unknown/Other Function
Bug Type:         Feature/Change Request
Bug description:yield break

Description:
------------
I was looking for a way to end a end a generator prematurely without
necessity to make it to the end of function/method. Also way of marking
a function/method as an empty generator. And I found none. If there is
one, one can say I can't google properly, or one could also say it was
not written in the documentation.

Test script:
---------------
abstract class Base
{
__construct()
{
foreach($this->generator() as $key => $value)
{
    $this->doSomething($key, $value);
}
}
protected abstract function generator(): traversable;
}

class Child extends Base
{
// empty generator??
protected function generator()
{
if (false)
{
    yield null;
}
}
}

Expected result:
----------------
I would appreciate some language construct like yield break; that would
end the generator prematurely, or could be used to simplify empty
generator syntax.
yield from new EmptyIterator(); is not really an option for me, sorry,
thats just plain ugly.
