Bug description: Add scalar-type hinting
Description:
------------
Currently, only object and array arguments of a function can be hinted.
However, if you can't hint non-class/non-array argument, you have to leave
argument unhinted, which allows passing of class/array besides of scalar
types.
I propose adding new type-hinting keyword 'scalar', which matches
complement to currently possible hints. Think also about 'resource' hint.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
function show ( scalar $string ) {
echo $string;
}
show("hello\n");
show(new stdClass());
?>
Expected result:
----------------
hello
Error...
