When the `PHP_CodeSniffer` runs, it produces a cache file. When a cache file is present, only changed files are rescanned, making subsequent scans significantly faster.
This adds the needed steps to the corresponding GitHub Actions workflows to cache these files across runs. The cache keys include the date of the previous Monday to ensure that the cache is flushed at least weekly.
Since GitHub Action caches cannot be updated once created, the scans will take slightly longer as the week progresses and more PHP files are updated. The date within the cache key can be updated to purge twice weekly if the scan time starts to approach the current scan times.
This change also introduces a `.cache` directory for all caching files related to build/test tools.

This is a final pass to fix PHP compatibiilty issues in the codebase with code changes or adding `phpcs:ignore` comments.
With this change, all PHP compatibility warnings and errors without specific tickets have been addressed (see #49810 and #41750).

As part of the continued effort to improve PHP compatibility, the following improvments are being made:
- Removing deprecated PHP `safe_mode` checks not found in bundled external libraries.
- Change the remaining `while` loops using `each()` to `foreach` loops.
- Prevent false positives from being flagged for the `sodium_compat` library being caused by loading this in a non-standard way.
- Add inline comments to not flag deprecated PHP directives in the getID3 library.

This change introduces a new Composer script, `compat` that will scan the codebase for (detectable) potential PHP compatibility issues using the `PHP_CodeSniffer` and a custom ruleset based off of the `PHPCompayibilityWP` ruleset (`phpcompat.xml.dist`).
The command will be run as a separate job within each Travis build. While many compatibility issues and false positives have already been corrected in this commit and other Trac tickets, there are still some remaining. For that reason, the job is allowed to fail while the remainder of the potential compatibility issues are investigated and addressed. After those are resolved, the job should be set as required to pass to help prevent new compatibility issues from being introduced.
Props desrosj, jrf, all PHPCompatibilityWP and PHPCompatibility contributors.
