Optimization: make it less cumbersome to have the APC user cache enabled for PHP 5.5+. Prior to this enhancement, it used to require a compilation flag (for apcu) until PHP7... then it became mandatory to install a dedicated backward compatibility module named after apcu_bc. Now, having apcu installed and enabled is ENOUGH.
