Bug description:Scope-Resolution Operator static binding
Description:
------------
https://github.com/php/php-langspec/blob/master/spec/10-expressions.md#scope-resolution-operator
The term "late static binding" gets mentioned and "static::" is shown in
one example, but it doesn't give nearly enough detail about how late
static binding works. It only says "From within a method, static::m
refers to the member m in the class that corresponds to the class
inheritance context in which the method is called", which is vague and
lacks a lot important details (for example, how "self::" and "parent::"
interact with late static binding). Late static binding is a big enough
language feature to deserve its own section. Check out php.net's
documentation for late static binding works:
