Pattern: Use of stand-alone PHP tag at the end of file
Issue: -
PHP 7.4 now supports stand-alone PHP tags at the end of a file (without new line).
<?php at the end of the file (without trailing newline) will now be interpreted as an opening PHP tag. Previously it was interpreted either as <? php and resulted in a syntax error (with short_open_tag=1) or was interpreted as a literal <?php string (with short_open_tag=0).
