Remove Zend

Zend is currently at version 1.12.17, we need to upgrade for php 7.2. The latest version is 3.0.

The changelog is out of date, but there is a blog post here that says 7.2 is supported in v.3.0:

Zend has significantly changed structure and it seems like it could be difficult to upgrade. We could just replace the deprecated features in 7.2 and maybe review its use? Moodle stopped using it a while ago.

Yes it would be good to find out how moodle does it's webservices, eg REST, SOAP stuff without the Zend framework - does it keep some files? have it's own custom files?

If we could drop the zend library that would be great
