 In [changeset:"60659" 60659]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="60659"
 Code Modernization: Replace non-canonical scalar type casts with canonical
 versions.

 PHP 8.5 deprecates four alternative scalar type names in favor of their
 canonical names:

 * `boolean` → `bool`
 * `double` → `float`
 * `integer` → `int`
 * `binary` → `string`

 References:
 * [https://php.watch/versions/8.5/boolean-double-integer-binary-casts-
 deprecated PHP.Watch: PHP 8.5: Non-canonical scalar type casts
 (boolean|double|integer|binary) deprecated]
 * [https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_8_5#deprecate_non-
 standard_cast_names PHP RFC: Deprecations for PHP 8.5: Deprecate non-
 standard cast names]

 Follow-up to [1346], [11875].
