Hi,

I think that maybe we can already deprecate supporting 32 bit builds.
And, maybe with PHP 9, or PHP 10, or with a future version that might exist
in about 6/7 years, completely drop 32 bits support.

As far as I checked a bit, all major OSs where PHP could run already
dropped or will drop support for 32 bits builds.
I expect that at some point even the linux kernel will drop support.

The impacted runtimes will probably be very low.
