Hi internals,

Recently I've been working on an RFC regarding object support for =
BCMath. While working on that, I learned of the following RFC:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/namespaces_in_bundled_extensions

If we follow this RFC, is it reasonable to place subclasses of PDO under =
the namespace "PDO=E2=80=9D?=20

e.g.
```
PdoMysql =3D> PDO\Mysql
PdoPgsql =3D> PDO\Pgsql
PdoSqlite =3D> PDO\Sqlite
PdoOdbc =3D> PDO\Odbc
PdoDblib =3D> PDO\Dblib
PdoFirebird =3D> PDO\Firebird
```

We'll probably get a BC Break if try to fix this after 8.4 is released, =
so before it's released is last chance to fix this safely.=20

If Tim's RFC under discussion is passed, the namespace will be "Pdo" =
instead of "PDO=E2=80=9D.
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/class-naming-acronyms

I would appreciate hearing your opinions.
