Fixed

• Fixed CI script installer and populating CI-related cache

Removed

• Removed enable_dl command option. This deprecated feature will certainly be removed in the future from PHP. Actually we no longer need this directive at all.
• Removed safe_mode PHP option. The Safe Mode removed from PHP 5.4, and generates a fatal E_CORE_ERROR level error when enabled.
• Removed no longer needed Zephir\FileSystem\Apc storage. APC creates a new memory pool when a CLI process is created so this adapter is useless.
• Removed no longer used bundled parser https://github.com/phalcon/zephir/issues/1471
