Separate the PHP versions to multiple dockerfiles

Because there's some difference in installing some libraries
between PHP 5 and PHP 7. There must be multiple php dockerfiles.
For that I created 3 docker files each of a different version,
this will make it easy for the users to switch between the PHP
version by just editing the docker-compose file and not touching
the dockerfiles.
