Hi Internals

as at least one participant in the previous thread [1] voiced the need 
for an RFC, I've written up an RFC:

https://wiki.php.net/rfc/iterator_xyz_accept_array

which I am officially opening up for discussion, just in time for PHP 8.2.

Voting will start in 2 weeks on 2022-07-05. Voting will end in 4 weeks 
on 2022-07-19.
