Bug description:  get_var_dump();

Description:
------------
Add function get_var_dump() to relieve the inconveniences associated with
var_dump() automatically outputting.

Reproduce code:
---------------
//for expected result
$getDump = get_var_dump($_GET);
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "GET dump from [EMAIL PROTECTED]", $getDump);
header("content-type:{$_GET['type']}");

//for actual result
var_dump($_GET);
header("content-type:{$_GET['type']}");

//can be emulated with, but cumbersome, and not always enabled on remote
hosts
ob_start();
var_dump($_GET);
$getDump = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "GET dump from [EMAIL PROTECTED]", $getDump);
header("content-type:{$_GET['type']}");

Expected result:
----------------
1) No error.
2) Ability to send / manipulate (convert to json for ajax apps) var dump
data outside of php

Actual result:
--------------
1) Header fails
2) var_dump must be seen as processed by tester and cannot be collected in
a beta environment.
