Applied with minor changes to the description (attached), mostly to give
some context to those who do not know what Phabricator is.

BTW we traditionally write one patch for each new package, but I think
it’s okay here.

Do you think those libraries could be unbundled?  Would it make sense?

Thank you!

Possibly, but they seem to be maintaining their own fork of at least
jsonlint, so the upstream versions may not be 100% compatible.

OK, maybe something to keep in mind when we add more PHP packages in the
future.

Thank you,
