 While the debate over #40934 continues on how to implement this in
 WordPress, the Requires PHP header became a thing in August.

 https://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2017/08/29/minimum-php-version-
 requirement/

 So, get_plugin_data should return it. Then, while the Core team debates
 how Core should implement the support, plugin authors can use it if
 needed.

 Seems easy enough.
