Hello all!

After a few weeks of nasty transition in bionic-proposed, and thanks
to the valiant efforts of xnox, slangasek and xevious (as well as
others I am sure I am forgetting), we have completed the in-archive
transition from PHP7.1 to PHP7.2. I expect PHP7.1 to be removed from
Bionic soon.

If you use Ubuntu and PHP, please give 18.04 a spin (in a VM,
container, etc. as appropriate for your environment) and report any
PHP incompatibilities in packages via bugs. I have tried to resolve as
many as possible via passing DEP8 tests or package removals as I
could, but I'm sure there are some missed ones.

For reference: http://php.net/manual/en/migration72.php documents
upstream's migration reference.

Thanks,
Nish
