Research direction

Start with the English source change in the linked php/doc-en pull request 5947, which removes the leading backslash from \DivisionByZeroError and replaces mixed \Exception and Exception in the finally examples. The new file language/control-structures/finally.xml has no Russian version yet, so translate it from the English source and apply the same example fixes to any existing Russian pages that use these names. Done when finally.xml exists in Russian and its examples match the English PR.
