[VOTE] RFC: Add ReflectionAttribute::getCurrent() - Externals

#externals - Opening PHP's #internals to the outside

@imsop I have to admit I was a bit worried for the last few days that my message on internals might have been completely off-base, or that I had phrased it badly, since it got no replies. https://externals.io/message/130816#130856

So seeing your latest idea around separating the runtime-checked layer from the SA-checked layer was honestly a relief. It seems close to what I was trying to get at, although your version generalizes it much better!

This is completely off-topic for the list, so I’m saying it here. :)

@sji Yes, your message was certainly part of what led me to this line of thinking. Maybe someone else will take it a step further again, and between us all we'll end up with a good solution. šŸ™‚
