Bug description:  Universalize needle/haystack argument order

Description:
------------
Please universalize the argument ordering for search functions like strstr
& in_array.  It's annoying to have to constantly second guess myself,
"Which uses needle/haystack and which is haystack/needle"

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$needle      = "what";
$haystack    = "Is what you're looking for in here?";

$stringFound = strstr($needle, $haystack);

$haystack    = explode(" ", $haystack);
$arrayFound  = in_array($needle, $haystack);

echo "String: " . ($stringFound ? "found\n" : "not found\n");
echo "Array:  " . ($arrayFound  ? "found\n" : "not found\n");
?>

Expected result:
----------------
String: found
Array:  found

Actual result:
--------------
String: not found
Array:  found
