I think you misunderstand what is happening here.
Many extensions are "just" in PECL and are still maintained there and kept
updated for newer versions. Distribution maintainers like Remi package all
the PECL extensions for every PHP version. Firebird support will surely be
updated to work with 7.4 and released by distributions. It will *just* not
be in php-src anymore.
For example, extensions that are not in php-src and are still widely
available in distributions
Memcache
Memcached
APCu
Imagick
Redis
Also Microsoft maintains all its drivres outside of the php-src tree.
