Title:
  Fix remaining PHP7 compatibility problems

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Mahara 16.10.4.

  Used https://github.com/JakubOnderka/PHP-Parallel-Lint to lint the
  Mahara codebase, found these issues:

  ------------------------------------------------------------
  Parse error: mahara/auth/saml/extlib/simplesamlphp/vendor/openid/php-openid/Tests/Auth/OpenID/StoreTest.php:699
      697|         $db->query("USE $temp_db_name");
      698|
    > 699|         $store =& new Auth_OpenID_MDB2Store($db);
      700|         if (!$store->createTables()) {
      701|             $this->fail("Failed to create tables");
  Unexpected 'new' (T_NEW)

    > 13| class Bool extends BoolFilter

    > 13| class Bool extends BoolQuery

    > 11| class Null extends NullTransport
      12| {
      13| }
  Fatal error: Cannot use 'Null' as class name as it is reserved
  ------------------------------------------------------------

  There is also another tool that finds several other errors in the
  codebase, https://github.com/sstalle/php7cc - in particular this one
  will error:

  File: search/internal/lib.php
  > Line 1281: Removed regular expression modifier "e" used
      preg_replace('/&(#x?)?([A-Za-z0-9]+);/e', '_decode_entities("$1", "$2", "$0", $newtable, $exclude)', $text);

  There is another modifier "e" usage, but looks like it is only used in
  a 2009 upgrade step.  There are MANY more warnings, deprecations and
  errors reported.

  Yet another tool to check compatibility is
  https://github.com/wimg/PHPCompatibility which mostly reports the same
  information as php7cc, but it is harder to use.  It does however have
  support for PHP7.1.

  Cheers!
