Drop support for PHP 7.0

    • Type: Icon: Task Task
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: Icon: Major - P3 Major - P3
    • 1.9.0
    • Affects Version/s: None
    • Component/s: None
    • None

      According to statistics on packagist, which serves packages for most of the PHP ecosystem, PHP 7.0 is at around ~4% of usage: https://blog.packagist.com/php-versions-stats-2020-1-edition/.

      Dropping support for PHP 7.0 would allow us to leverage the void return type, as well as nullable types for function arguments and return values.
