PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: Implement dummy get / set_magic_quotes_runtime for compatibility

Description:
------------
In PHP 6 magic_quotes has been removed completely, but many scripts use
get/set_magic_quotes_runtime to DISABLE it. These scripts break with PHP 6,
even though they do not use magic_quotes.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

$old = get_magic_quotes_runtime();
set_magic_quotes_runtime(0);
// Do something here
set_magic_quotes_runtime($old);

Expected result:
----------------
Because the script tried to disable magic_quotes, it should work. I
suggest that the behavior in PHP 6 is changed to:

get_magic_quotes_runtime() // always returns 0
set_magic_quotes_runtime(0) // does nothing
set_magic_quotes_runtime(1) // fatal error

(0 and 1 could of course be replaced with anything that is equal to FALSE
or TRUE, respectively)

Actual result:
--------------
With php6.0-200801022130 I get:
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_magic_quotes_runtime() in
- on line 3
