Bug description:_destruct should permit "void" as return type

Description:
------------
According to PHP's manual:
http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.decon.php
the signature of the __destruct method is:

void __destruct ( void )

Consequently, the following syntax would be correct for 7.2, now that a
"void" type hint is available:

function __destruct(): void {}


Actual result:
--------------
PHP Fatal error:  Destructor __destruct() cannot declare a return type
