Good point, even Conan is missing some of those dependencies. Guess I'll
have to package those dependencies in Conan Center Index first, which is
not a big issue, since I wasn't planning to start working on PHP this
year, just to let everyone think things through.

That's not really an issue. PHP is an application and not a library, so
it can afford to not rely on CMake packages to find dependencies. In
libraries you are usually restricted to find_package() to make things
work properly transitively. Conan can in fact generate CMake packages
for libraries that don't support clients using CMake, but that would
lead to lock-in if PHP were to use those and my aim is to make things
work regardless what method is used to fetch dependencies.
