MongoDB PHP Driver 1.4.4 released

[Derick Rethans]

The PHP team is happy to announce that version 1.4.4 of the mongodb PHP
extension is now available on PECL.

Release Highlights

This release addresses a compile time issue related to compiling with
the bundled zlib in case your system does not have the library or
headers. The new release additionally does no longer send a session ID
with unacknowledged writes, as this is prohibited by the driver session
specification.

We have also updated the documentation that macOS users install the
driver from PECL now that Homebrew no longer has a PECL/mongodb
extension formula.
