Hi all

I've created a patch[1] that welcomes new friend into the
zend_arg_info family, resource, and a new flag for ZEND_ME_MAPPING and
pals, ZEND_ACC_INFO_MAP_TO_FUNCTION.

The idea is to make it easier to define argument info for those
extensions who map methods to functions which require some kind of
resource as its first argument.

Since the methods don't take any resource argument one would need to
define two arg_info, one for the function and one for the method, with
the only difference being the first parameter.
This patch lets you however define the first argument as a resource
(ZEND_ARG_RESOURCE_INFO) and then when you register the method you can
pass the ZEND_ACC_INFO_MAP_TO_FUNCTION flag so the first argument
(*if* it's defined as resource) will be skipped.

On a related note, I find it kinda silly we don't offer argument info
(except from spl) so I made a patch for ext/dom[2], ext/xsl[3] and
ext/reflection[4].
I'd like to take down the rest, of at least the OO once..
Any thoughts?
