Description:
------------
Calling ftruncate() with negative index on php://memory leads to memory exhaustion and fatal error.

https://3v4l.org/k720s

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$fd = fopen("php://memory", "w+");
ftruncate($fd, -1);

Expected result:
----------------
(nothing)

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 2097152) (tried to allocate 18446744073709551615 bytes) in /in/k720s on line 4

mmap() failed: [22] Invalid argument
mmap() failed: [22] Invalid argument

Process exited with code 255.

ftruncate() expects size as signed integer[1] and passes it on to
_php_stream_truncate_set_size() which expects an unsigned
integer[2]. Obviously, that doesn't work well for negative
integers.

I am running into similar problem, but differently.
I am currently porting a php5.x extension to php7, the test cases ran fine in php5, and failed with the exact same errors shown here when it tries to allocate custom objects.

mmap() failed: [22] Invalid argument
mmap() failed: [22] Invalid argument
Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 2097152) (tried to allocate 18446744073709551608 bytes)

This is perhaps, php7 related instead of "PHP version: Irrelevant"?

@totszwai Yours is another issue, as <https://3v4l.org/k720s>
shows (which also exhibits this behavior under PHP 5), albeit
apparently also caused by a respective signed to unsigned
conversion. Please open another ticket, and supply a test script.
