Bug description:  Logical Combination Assignment Operators

Description:
------------
PHP current supports combination assignment operators for arithmetic,
bitwise, and string operations. These operators include: +=, *=, %=, &=,
etc...

PHP should also support combination assignment operators for logical
operations such as && and ||.

The requested operators are: &&=, and ||=. I would also request XOR, but
there doesn't appear to be a ^^ operator to begin with that isn't spelled
out.

NOTE: This is NOT the same request as Bug #12930.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$valid = true;
$valid &&= isCondition1();
$valid &&= isCondition2();
$valid &&= isCondition3();
var_export($valid);

Expected result:
----------------
$valid should be set to boolean true, only if the three conditions
evaluate to true. If any condition evaluates to false, $valid should be set
to false.

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '='...
