PHP 7 Support

Included in this release is a **/hotfix-php7/** and a **/hotfix-php71/**directory. Please use the former to overwrite the default /blesta/app/app_controller.php, /blesta/app/app_model.php, and /blesta/app/models/license.php files for PHP 7.0 and the later for PHP 7.1 (and PHP 7.2. While PHP 7.2 is reported to work, it is not officially supported and we would recommend PHP 7.1 for the moment.).
