Stdlib: ext/sqlsrv — sqlsrv_connect()/sqlsrv_query() SQL Server driver missing (ext/sqlsrv)

Problem

Microsoft's sqlsrv extension provides SQL Server connectivity for PHP enterprise apps: sqlsrv_connect(), sqlsrv_query(), sqlsrv_fetch_array(), sqlsrv_errors(), etc. This compiler registers no sqlsrv surface — function_exists('sqlsrv_connect') is false.

php-src reference

• php/php-src ext/sqlsrv/sqlsrv.c — module init (Microsoft-maintained fork)
• microsoft/msphpsql — upstream driver sources + stubs

Repro (failure today)

./script/docker-exec.sh -- bash -lc 'source script/php-env.sh
php bin/vm.php -r "var_export(function_exists(\"sqlsrv_connect\")); echo \"\n\";
var_export(function_exists(\"sqlsrv_query\")); echo \"\n\";"
'

Observed: both false.

<?php
$conn = sqlsrv_connect('localhost', ['Database' => 'test', 'UID' => 'sa', 'PWD' => 'x']);
var_export($conn);

VM today: undefined function.

Scope (this repo) — v1 subset

Path	Work
ext/sqlsrv/Module.php	Register connect/query/fetch/errors builtins
VM	Resource type for connection + statement; thin ODBC/FreeTDS ABI or documented stub until native driver linked
v1	sqlsrv_connect, sqlsrv_query, sqlsrv_fetch_array, sqlsrv_errors, sqlsrv_close
Tests	test/compliance/cases/stdlib/sqlsrv_functions_exist.phpt (smoke); integration skip without server

php-in-PHP first: error formatting + arg validation in ext/sqlsrv/; C only for unavoidable ODBC calls.

php-src-strict: invalid connection options → false + sqlsrv_errors() entries like Zend.

Done when

• function_exists('sqlsrv_connect') true on VM
• Invalid connect returns false with structured sqlsrv_errors() (no fatal)
• Capability matrix documents sqlsrv module
• ./script/ci-fast.sh --filter sqlsrv_functions_exist green

merged in #35597

verification:

• ./script/aot-smoke.sh → 8/8
• ./script/docker-exec.sh -- bash -lc 'source script/php-env.sh && php bin/vm.php -r "…"' → function_exists sqlsrv_* true; connect=false; sqlsrv_errors IMSSP/-49
• php script/generate-extension-registry.php --check → 83 extensions ok
• php script/capability-matrix.php --check → ok (1172 builtins)
