Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"49037" 49037]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="49037"
 Tests: Backport two changes from PHPUnit 9.3:

 * Replace the `Match` interface with `ParametersMatch`, to avoid parse
 errors due to `match` being a reserved keyword in PHP 8.
 * Replace `ReflectionParameter::getClass()` usage, which is deprecated in
 PHP 8.

 This allows tests relying on the `getMockForAbstractClass()` and
 `getMockBuilder()` methods to run again on PHP 8.

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

 Follow-up to [48972].

 See #50913, #50902.
