    PHP class names should be referenced by ::class when possible
    __CLASS__, get_parent_class(), get_called_class(), get_class() and get_class($this) can be referenced by a ::class constant. The code base should use that. It brings consistency: the usage is the same than for other PHP class constants and the way to get a class name can be the same everywhere (__CLASS__ vs self::class and OtherClassName::class). It is also a bit faster for the PHP engine.
