Cherry-pick of upstream 84ad3a5. The generator return type covariance
change is built on yurun's Translator.php, which diverged from
origin/master, so the files are materialized from the upstream commit
directly (they already include the cc25d71 FiberGenerator change).
- isReturnTypeOverrideCompatible now performs full covariance: every value
the child can return must be acceptable under the parent's declared
return type (nullable/union narrowing allowed).
- Add getReturnAcceptedTypes/isReturnTypeSubtype/isReturnTypeCoveredBy/
isReturnTypeEntryCompatible helpers; generators use their source-level
declared return type so interface/abstract covariance checks hold.
- FunctionDef gains declaredReturnType/declaredReturnClass/declaredReturnTypeCheck.
Regression tests: interface-return-type.phpt, interface-return-type-variants.phpt.
