[TYPO3-core] PHP version requirement

[Wouter Wolters]

Hi Micheal,

AFAIK the requirement is set to 5.3.7 because there are some issues in 
lower versions which are related to the namespace change. These have 
been tackled in 6.0, to also work with 5.3.3. But it can happen that it 
gives problems (there are no known issues to my knowledge).

So 5.3.7 is a version that is guaranteed to work with 6.0.
Nevertheless 5.3.3 is also working.
