Re: [RFC] E_NOTICE for invalid array container

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.
