Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"48972" 48972]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="48972"
 Tests: Replace the native PHPUnit `getMockForAbstractClass()` and
 `getMockBuilder()` methods.

 This avoids parse errors in PHPUnit internals due to `match` being a
 reserved keyword in PHP 8.

 To run on PHP 8, the tests relying on these methods require PHPUnit 9.3 or
 later.

 When the test suite is updated for compatibility with PHPUnit 9.x, these
 overrides can be removed.

 See #50913, #50902.
 }}}
