Bug description:mcrypt_encode tests are broken

Description:
------------
There was a recent commit
(http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=commit;h=a861a3a93d89a50ce58e1ab1abef1eb501f97483)
that changed behaviour of the mcrypt_encode() function.  After that
commit the key is required to be at least the expected key length long,
otherwise a warning message is issued and the mcrypt_encode() routine
returns a failure.

The corresponding test in ext/mcrypt/tests/bug62102_rfc2144.php supplies
10 bytes key instead of 16 for cast-128 80-bit encryption and 5 bytes
key instead of 10 for cast-128 40-bit encryption.

A quick fix to the test would be to pad the keys with '\0' manually
(RFC-2144 B.1), e.g.

mcrypt_encrypt('cast-128',
"\x01\x23\x45\x67\x12\x34\x56\x78\x23\x45\0\0\0\0\0\0", $plaintext,
'ecb')

but unfortunately due to the way changed code treats key data (as a null
terminated string) and due to calculating the key size as strlen() of
that string there is no way to satisfy the RFC-2144 B.1 since all
trailing '\0' will be ignored.


Expected result:
----------------
That the RFC-2144 test would be passed with the explicitly specified
vector and that mcrypt_encrypt() would honour the key argument as a
binary string that can include '\0' anywhere in the string.

Actual result:
--------------
All trailing '\0' in the key argument are ignored, therefore it's
impossible to pass RFC-2144 test to match section B.1.
