Description:
------------
A generator that yields values from an array does not throw an exception when calling the rewind method after multiple yields from same yield construction.

Can also be seen at https://3v4l.org/NZ77U

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

$generator = (static function () {
    yield from [1,2,3];
})();

$generator->next();
$generator->next();
$generator->rewind();
echo $generator->current(); # 3

Expected result:
----------------
RuntimeException on line $generator->rewind();

Actual result:
--------------
3

Do i understand correctly that this bug will not be fixed for php 7?

That's right. Because it would not be polite if code that already runs in 7.4 suddenly started throwing exceptions with the next release.

I think those who wrote the generator rewind code did it with the behavior described in the documentation.
I wrote the code too, expecting and considering that the generator would throw an exception. The incorrect behavior was found only during testing.
I, of course, do not insist, but think that it is worth releasing a fix for php7 and writing a warning in the patch note.

Now php7 does not work as it is written in the documentation regarding Generator::rewind()

I think it should be fixed in PHP 7 as well:

1. It contradicts documentation.
2. There's no way to work around it.
