I have not run a benchmark on the current implementation but would be happy
to (and also attach that to the results of the RFC, pass or fail). Since
there really isn't a good way to test this exact behaviour against master
(since it doesn't exist), do you have any ideas for a reasonable benchmark?
The only added clock time should be attaching "friended" classes to the
"friending" zend_class_entry and an additional runtime check for
`protected` member access. What about the following:

For master (control):

```
class Readable {
  public $property = 'foo';
}

class Reader {
  public function read(Readable $object) {
    echo $object->property;
  }
}

$readable = new Readable();
$reader = new Reader();

// Time the following...
for ($i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++) {
  $reader->read($readable);
}
```

For RFC (experiment):

```
class NotReadable {
  friend Reader;

  protected $property = 'foo';
}

class Reader {
  public function read(NotReadable $object) {
    echo $object->property;
  }
}

$not_readable = new NotReadable();
$reader = new Reader();

// Time the following...
for ($i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++) {
  $reader->read($not_readable);
}
```

If you have any better idea, let me know and I can move forward. Also, if
there is some "standard" benchmark you'd like me to run, please let me know.

Thanks!
