Description:
------------
With --enable-debug, shutdown_executor segfaults trying to destroy the HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA global if the POST body length is zero. The cause is the use of php_stream_copy_to_mem in php_default_post_reader (php_content_types.c:64), which sets the buf parameter to NULL when no data is read. This results in a zval string where Z_STRVAL == NULL. When Zend debugging is disabled, this is harmless, only resulting in a call to _efree(NULL). When Zend debugging is enabled, the string value is dereferenced by a call to CHECK_ZVAL_STRING_REL.

This bug was introduced by https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/3641507fc1a854ec56135740f528d5d428920833

Test script:
---------------
env REDIRECT_STATUS=200 REQUEST_METHOD=POST CONTENT_LENGTH= GATEWAY_INTERFACE=CGI/1.1 SCRIPT_NAME=/some_script.php SCRIPT_FILENAME=/some_script.php php-cgi

Actual result:
--------------
