[THRIFT-5757] PHP cross test

[sveneld]

• Did you create an Apache Jira ticket? (Request account here, not required for trivial changes)
• If a ticket exists: Does your pull request title follow the pattern "THRIFT-NNNN: describe my issue"?
• Did you squash your changes to a single commit? (not required, but preferred)
• Did you do your best to avoid breaking changes? If one was needed, did you label the Jira ticket with "Breaking-Change"?
• If your change does not involve any code, include [skip ci] anywhere in the commit message to free up build resources.

What's the status with this draft?

I haven't time to finish it. I will try to pay attention to this pull request on next week. When you plan to make a new release?

When you plan to make a new release?

There is no fixed plan, about twice a year. There are some ideas about 0.23.0 but there is still some work in progress, so most likely not before December. OTOH how important is that at all? I mean, we talk about the cross test. Super awesome w/regard to the Github actions but not really mission critical IMHO.

So either way I leave that PR open for now.

It's important for further update of supported php version. I want to implement new features of language and remove deprecations. So i will be better to test code. Let it opened, I will to try to implement this test in this month. Thank you
