[PHP-DEV] [RFC] [Discussion] Minimum supported versions for PHP 8.6

Hey all,

I hope you've been enjoying what appears to be the RFC "busy season".
I've got another RFC following up on an earlier thread about adding
COM_RESET_CONNECTION support to PDO and mysqlnd:

https://wiki.php.net/rfc/min_supported_versions_php_8_6

This proposes a minimum version requirement for autoconf when building
from source, and a minimum version requirement of MySQL 5.7.3 and
MariaDB 10.2.4 when using persistent connections.

- Original thread: https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/130704
- autoconf PR: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/21159
- COM_RESET_CONNECTION PR: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/21857
and original issue: https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/20225

(Tim, I've not added you as an author since I wasn't sure you'd be
cool with that, but if you'd like I would be more than happy to.)

Thank you,
Eric Norris
