Support for embedded php 5.6 debugger - phpdbg

I received this just after editing this bug:

Final-Recipient: rfc822;<ondrej.brejla@oracle.com>
Diagnostic-Code: 550 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable
Action: failed
Status: 5.0.0

I'm afraid that speaks for itself. However I've just realized this enhancement does not make any sense, phpdbg is not meant to be integrated into IDEs.

Oh, I will just quote "krakjoe" from your reddit thread:

When phpdbg became part of PHP, many people expressed interest in being able to use phpdbg from their IDE. What we should have said is "no, use xdebug": xdebug is mature software, full of features, with excellent remote capabilities. We didn't want to focus on those things, or try to compete with xdebug. Nevertheless, time was spent on a formal protocol for remote phpdbg'ing ... this caused quite a storm in phpland, rightly, upsetting Derick. We never intended to step on his toes, so we backed off.
